Default Format statement no longer throws an error

I had code running in Excel 97 that would throw an error, but now that I am running Excel 2003 it does not.

Format$("0.5","General"

It used to throw error 5 (Invalid procedure call or argument), but now it returns "Ge5eral". Is this a documented change?
