Label

The ActiveBar Label control allows you to display text, icons, or both that can be manipulated directly by a user. You can use a label control as a caption for another control on your form that does not possess a Caption property or to display text to notify the user of an application event. On Toolbar type bands, the Type property for a Label tool must be switched from the default 0-ddSStandard to 1-ddSText in order for the label text to display in the Toolbar band. Use the LabelFormat property to change the VB6 formatting for ddLSTime and ddLSDate style labels.

Label Style Description
  ddLSText - Displays a text caption or application output.
ddLSInsert - Displays after setting system Insert to True.
  ddLSCapitalLock - Displays after setting system Capital Lock to True.
  ddLSNumberLock - Displays after setting system Number Lock to True.
  ddLSScrollLock - Displays after setting system Scroll Lock to True.
