If you want a caption for a text box, you'll need a label control.

Most people find it easier to set the tab order in the Tab Order dialog rather than set the TabIndex property on each control's Advanced Properties dialog.

Is there a way to add a caption to the defined fileds for a text box?
In Properties Display caption is grayed out forcing me to create a label
that has to follow it around and another thing to have to tediously move
around in the tab order.

(Is there a better way to set tab order? than the Layout Tab order?)
