   A Text box control is a kind of Get control, and is used for handling
   variable size Memo fields (like Clipper's MEMOEDIT).

   Text boxes, by default, handle text entry with a width (in columns) equal
   to the width of the control, while the length can exceed the control's
   height. The properties (Ctrl-Enter key) contain a parameter, Number
   of columns, that allows to specify the real text width. This can be more
   than the control's width, and the text will then automatically scroll
   horizontally.

    . Useful information about the input validation that can be
       performed on the data entered into the Text box control, please
       consult the Field controls chapter.

   To load a Text-box control onto an object, use the Alt-1 or Alt-F1
   keys.

   When the Text-Box has been positioned in the data entry form, its
   Definition frame can be activated by pressing the Space Bar.

   The mask allows the definition of the properties of a Text-Box. In this
   mask, the name and the description of the object containing the control
   along with the name of the file associated to it are in display mode.
