Type the integer value to use for each state. Values for states whose Access is other than None must be unique. Values for states whose Access is None need not be unique.

Type the text for the state. The text appears on the face of the object, to give the operator information about what the object does or about the current state. You can also specify a variable that is to be included in the caption.

From the list, select the type of variable to be inserted in the caption. In the dialog box, specify the details of the variable.

This box displays the current text color for the caption. Click it to select another color.
