This method uses composite formatting to convert the value of an object to its string representation. The FormatProvider property, if not null, specifies the culture-specific formatting. For more information, see Composite Formatting. This method does not search the specified String for individual newline characters (hexadecimal 0x000a) and replace them with NewLine.
If a specified object is not referenced in the format string, it is ignored.
