Label Text
Text of the label. If the label is attached to a field, it can be set in ProcScript using the $labelproperties function.
Description
To set this property, change its value in the the Properties Inspector.
You can use the $text function to provide alternate label texts, such as a different spelling for American or British audiences, or a translated label for multilingual applications.
Using $labelproperties
In the following example, the field labels of the
ABBREVIATION
and FULLNAME
fields are set in the
exec operation. The show command
draws the form, making the label available. After the $labelproperties
instructions, the edit command refreshes the display with the new labels.
operation exec show $labelproperties (ABBREVIATION) = "text=Initials" $labelproperties (FULLNAME) = "text=Employee Name" edit end; exec
