Remarks
A group box is a single-line box with an appropriate title to identify the nature of the group. It should be drawn around the related controls on the surface of a window and can contain a single or several sets of choices. Use the Init() method from TextControl to create a group box. Also, the title of a group box can be changed using the TextValue assign method of TextControl.
Tip Tip
CUA Style: According to CUA guidelines, you should not use group boxes for a set of one or more push buttons or list boxes. Rather, a group box would be more useful in a "Print File" dialog, for example, where a number of options—like a "Copies" edit control and a "Print Color" check box—can be grouped together.
