Property Value

Type: Usual
A string representing the caption of the control (i.e., the static text identifying the control)

A string representing the caption of the control (i.e., the static text identifying the control). Examples include the label on the face of a button, the text written next to a check box or radio button, or the text on the border of a radio button group or group box. Note that not all controls have a visible caption. For example, the ordinary edit control (MultiLineEdit class) does not have a visible caption—the text commonly displayed next to the edit is actually a separate control, placed there by the Window Editor. Thus, assigning a new value to the caption of this type of control does not change anything on the screen.
