Can you use a PROPERTY command to change the label? I think that if you
assign the label a component ID, it can be done.
PROPERTY myLabel TEXTVALUE 'Whatever"

I do not think that you can attach a variable to a variable “label”,
only to a variable “edit.” What I want to do is to display the
Agency’s name at the top of the form, if I define it as a variable and
use a variable edit then I cannot make the background transparent, if
I define it as variable label then it is hard coded with the variable
label and cannot be changed with code, say to display a different
Agency’s name...

Javier -
I created a variable, fTest = 'YYYY' and placed it on a form in a
Variable Label.
I then set an EEP on a RIGHT-CLICK into a DbText object that says:
SET VAR fTest = 'XXX'
PROPERTY TABLE mytablename 'REFRESH'
RETURN
and that seems to work just fine.
Will that work for you?

I need to display a non-editable variable in a form but I want the
display to look like a variable label, i.e. no box around the variable
and transparent, so the value displays as plain text over the
background, is there a way that I can do this? I have also thought of
setting it as variable label but I do not believe that there is a way
to update the text of the variable label with code
(PROPERTY….TEXTVALUE…). TIA.
