Text boxes

[Louise]

Hi Experts,

If I want to put a text box on a form as a little note of
instruction I can only seem to type so many words and can't
see in properties where to extend this ability. I am using
the label control box as using text box seems to show up on
the form with #unbound????

Bit stuck

If it's not something the user will be typing in or you need to do a
calculation in, you may find a label easier. For the textbox, this string
you are trying to put in would go in the Control Source as an equation.

="This is my string."

For a label, the string would go in the label's caption property. To see
more then is visible in the small box in the properties window, you can
"zoom" the box by pressing Shift+F2.
