Represents the custom number format string of this style object. If the custom number format is not set(For example, the number format is builtin), "" will be returned. The returned custom string is culture-independent.

Type: String

Style.CultureCustom property

Gets and sets the culture-dependent pattern string for number format. If no number format has been set for this object, null will be returned. If number format is builtin, the pattern string corresponding to the builtin number will be returned. For builtin number format, both the pattern content(such as, one builtin date format is “m/d/y” for some locales, but for some other locales it becomes “d/m/y”) and the format specifier(such as, some locales is using character other than ‘y’ to represent the year part for date formatting) are culture-dependent; For user specified custom format, only format specifiers are changed according to the culture, other parts of the formatting pattern will not be modified.

Type: String

Style.InvariantCustom property

Gets the culture-independent pattern string for number format. If no number format has been set for this object, null will be returned. If number format is builtin, the pattern string corresponding to the builtin number will be returned. For builtin number formats, the returned pattern content is still culture-dependent, such as, for some locales it returns “m/d/y” and for some other locales it returns “d/m/y”. The difference from CultureCustom is(that is also what culture-independent means): the format specifiers and separators are kept as standard, such as ‘/’ will always be used as datetime separator and “y” will always be used as the “year” part no matter what other special character is used for the specific locale.
