I found that the ADGV had problems filtering strings which had curly braces in them. Since cell string values are later used within the format string passed to StringBuilder.AppendFormat an exception would occur.
I modified the FormatString method in ADGVFilterMenu.cs to escape curly braces in format strings by doubling up on them:
``` C#
private String FormatString(String Text)
{
String result = "";
String s;
String[] replace = { "%", "[", "]", "*", "\"", "`", "\\" };
for (Int32 i = 0; i < Text.Length; i++)
{
s = Text[i].ToString();
if (replace.Contains(s))
result += "[" + s + "]";
else if (s == "{")
result += "{{";
else if (result == "}")
result += "}}";
else
result += s;
}
return result.Replace("'", "''");
}
```
