If you are using two-way data binding (whether it is a formview, gridview, etc), you may find a place where you need to format a column such as a date. Bind has a second parameter which accepts typical bind expressions.
For example, to format a date, do something like this:
<%# Bind("MyDateColumn", "{0:d}") %>
