Label object (Access)
This object corresponds to a label control. Labels on a form or report display descriptive text such as titles, captions, or brief instructions.
Remarks
| Control | Tool |

Labels have certain characteristics:
- Labels don't display values from fields or expressions.
- Labels are always unbound.
- Labels don't change as you move from record to record.
A label can be attached to another control. When you create a text box, for example, it has an attached label that displays a caption for that text box. This label appears as a column heading in the Datasheet view of a form.
When you create a label by using the Label tool, the label stands on its own—it isn't attached to any other control. You use stand-alone labels for information such as the title of a form or report or for other descriptive text. Stand-alone labels don't appear in Datasheet view.
