This attribute is the text string displayed in the control. On setting, if the field 0 of the record is not null, the record is formatted using FormatText. If the field 0 is null, the first field of the record defines the text. On getting the value is always returned in the first field. For some controls this text may not be visible. In Windows the accelerator key for a control is defined by placing a "&" in front of the desired character in this string.
