Adding Text to a DataWindow Object

You can add text anywhere in a DataWindow object.

When PowerBuilder generates a basic DataWindow object from a presentation style and data source, it places columns and their headings in the DataWindow painter. You can add text anywhere you want to make the DataWindow object easier to understand.

  1. In the Toolbox, click the Text control.
  2. Click where you want the text.
    PowerBuilder places the text control in the Design view and displays the word text.
  3. Type the text you want.
  4. (Optional) Use the Properties view to change the font size, style, and alignment.
