Text objects are pieces of text that you can move to different parts of the layout. Text objects are very useful for column headings and prompts.
To enter a text object, click 
on the Object Toolbar and drag it to the desired area in the Layout, or click in the desired Layout section and select Insert, then Text Object. A box appears where you can type the text for the text object.
To move a text object to another location in the Layout, select the text object and drag it to the desired location.
To edit the text in a text object, right-click the text object and select Edit Text.
To change the properties of a text object, select the object in the layout and change the properties in the Property Explorer (see Using the Property Explorer), or right-click the text object and select Object Properties.
