The Property Sheet - Fill In dialog allows you to modify the fill-in properties.
This dialog includes the following options:
| Object | Enter a new name for the fill-in or accept the default. Note: If
you make the fill-in a database field, the fill-in uses the
database field name.
|
| Label | Enter a new label for the fill-in or accept the default. Note: If
you make the fill-in a database field, the fill-in uses the
database field label.
If you want to suppress the fill-in label, select the No-Label check box. GUI Designer adds the No-Label option to the Frame phrase. |
