  2. Draw a rectangle on the form positioned near the form object corresponding to the label you are adding.

  3. Type or paste label text in the label text box.

  4. Use the options on the Format tab of the Forms Field Label Properties panel to format the label text. See Formatting Selected Text.

  5. Click the Text Box tab on the Forms Field Label Properties panel to format the background and style properties for the form label. See Setting Text Box Background.

  6. Click the HTML button to open the Object HTML dialog so you can add code to the label’s generated code. See Accessing an Object's HTML .

  7. Click the Form Label Inspector tab.

  8. Choose the form object that corresponds to the label in the For drop-down menu.
