TEXT IN BOX command

Use the TEXT IN BOX command to incorporate text into a box on your form. The command syntax format designates the proper type and placement of text in a box according to the planned form. This command format is similar to the TEXT AT command, except it includes those parameters necessary to designate the placement of text in a box.

You must define a box with matching coordinate values before you can reference it in a TEXT IN BOX command. You can create boxes and adjoining boxes with BOX commands, LINE commands, or both.
