How to alter the look of data

edited 10:25PM in FastReport 3.0
I use FR 3.15 and C++ Builder 5.0.

I am really mad that OnGetValue is no longer called. I have to take numbers and convert them to time format (like 322.12 displays as 5:22.12). This used to be easy with 2.5x, but now I cannot get this to work properly. I tried writing a C++ Script, but the examples DO NOT EXIST (in C++), and I want to have access to all of the functions I have already written, not being forced to use the few functions that are available in the scripts.

Why was OnGetValue changed ? You should NEVER remove functionality with an upgrade. I think I am going to ask for a refund on my 3.x purchase.

Since OnGetValue still exists - how do I call it ? I read that it is only called for unknown variables. How do I create an unknown variable so I can fudge this to work ?

Any suggestions would be GREATLY appreciated!

    Well, i have fr 3.14 and the OnGetValue is there and working quite well.... What`s exactly your problem?

    I put a breakpoint in OnGetValue, and I run my report, and the breakpoint never gets hit. 3.12 didn't work either.

    Are you telling me that OnGetValue works in your 3.14 just like it worked with 2.5x ?

    Thanks for writing!
