So it's a bug?

Private hGrid As GridView

Public Sub Form_Open()

  Dim hPan As HBox
  Dim hButton As Button
  Dim hDate As Date

  hGrid = New GridView(Me) As "GridView1"

  With Me
    .H = 512
    .W = 512
    .Arrangement = Arrange.Vertical
    .Margin = True
  End With
  With hGrid
    .Expand = True
    .Header = GridView.Horizontal
    .Rows.Count = 1
    .Columns.Count = 1
    .Columns[0].Title = "DATE"
  End With
  hDate = Date(Now)
  hGrid[0, 0].text = Format(hDate, "dd/mmm/yyyy")
  hGrid.Columns.Width = -1
  With hPan = New HBox(Me)
    .h = 40
  End With
  With hButton = New Button(Me) As "Button1"
    .h = 40
    .AutoResize = True
    .Text = "CLICK HERE"
  End With

End

Public Sub Button1_Click()

  Print IsDate(hGrid[0, 0].Text) ' <---------FALSE!

End
