+<emph>Formatting</emph>: You can set the <emph>Formatting</emph> property by clicking the <emph>...</emph> button in the <emph>Formatting</emph> line of the <emph>Properties: Formatted Field</emph> dialog. The <emph>Number Format</emph> dialog appears.</paragraph>
+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3150443" xml-lang="en-US">If the formatted field is connected to the text field of a database, the entries in this field will be treated as text. If the formatted field is connected to a field of the database that can be displayed as a number, the input is treated as numbers. The date and time are also handled internally as numbers.</paragraph>
+<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3150976" xml-lang="en-US">
+<emph>Min. value</emph> and <emph>Max. value</emph>: You can enter the minimum and maximum numeric value for a formatted field. The min and max values determine the output of existing data (Example: Min. value is <emph>5</emph>, the connected database field contains the integer value <emph>3</emph>. The output is <emph>5</emph>, but the value in the database is not modified) and the input of new data (Example: Max. value is <emph>10</emph> and you enter <emph>20</emph>. The input is corrected and <emph>10</emph> is written in the database). If the fields are not filled in for <emph>Min. value</emph> and <emph>Max. value</emph>, no limits will be applied. For formatted fields that are connected to a database text field, these two values and the <emph>Default value</emph> do not apply.</paragraph>

+<emph>Default value</emph>: This value is set for new records as the default value.</paragraph>
