Control Properties

Properties of a control can edit its position and size as well what it displays. The Output/Caption input is the caption or display of a Label control or the options of a Combo Box. To separate the options in a combo box use the more character "|", for example "Via Fax|Via Snail Mail|Via Horseback". The Settings input is the controls property reference if you will, the way an actions and script can link to the associated control. If you are using an ActiveX control with multiple fields us the word Array to tell the Reader to read the ActiveX.
