The Caption object allows you to design a functional input interface while eliminating the need to have a separate Label control for each field.
Captions can be added to the left, top, right, or bottom portion of the control, and can be aligned horizontally and vertically. The caption Text has its own Font object separate from the text within the control's data entry window.
The properties of the Caption object can be set with the Caption Property Page (TDBDate) at design time, and can be set with Visual Basic code at run time.
Note that all mouse relative events are ignored in the Caption object. Clicking on the caption area will not cause the focus to move into the edit control.
All of the properties for the Caption object are listed in the following reference section:
