The parent Format object represents a property to be rendered. The Patterns collection should contain enough patterns to cover all possible values of this property. Each Pattern object's Value property indicates the set of values to be rendered by that pattern. If only one Pattern object is included in the collection, its Value property should contain a string value consisting of a single asterisk (*), which matches all possible values of the property to be rendered.
