Description

The Label property sets the text for a label or heading for an entry control object (form, edit or list). In most classes, just setting this property is all that is required for the class to present the label in whatever particular way each class does this. In data-aware classes, the value of this property is overridden by label values in the DDO when auto_label_state has been set true.

Object F1 is a Form
    Set Size to 13 100
    Set location to 10 70
    Set label to "First Name:" 
End_object

To display an ampersand (&) in a label, use two ampersand characters.

Set Label to 'Save && Display'

Many visible classes have a separate object of the TextBox class that displays the object's label, the handle to which can be obtained via Label_Object.
