What does the Format Text step do?

Hello, I was curious if anyone could tell me what the format text step does and I use it.
Do I pass in a regex in the object input to format the text a certain way?

Hi Frank,
The [b]Format Text [/b]step is actually used to format a String that implements Microsofts [b]String.Format[/b] formatting. The specified Input Object that the step asks for is actually the value that will be inserted into the [b]Format String[/b].
Heres a link to a document from Microsoft on String. Format
