If you explicitly set deleted on in your SP, then I don't understand how would you get the deleted records back. Even if the connection has DELETED OFF, SP setting should have override this, I would assume.

For your format question I'm researching it. I quickly checked Convert class and ToString documentation in MSDN, but haven't found an example yet. I recall it in the C# book I had, but I don't have it now.
