Captions

    A caption is what a button(or label, textbox, ect.) reads.   A button that exits the program would read ExitExit is the button's caption.  To change the caption on a button you would first click on the button on your form.  Now go to the properties window at the right of your screen.   In the properties window, locate the caption property.  Click in to box to the right of caption(if you haven't changed it yet it would read Command1).  You can now edit the button name.  You can change a labels caption by using the same process.  A textbox's caption is different however because its caption is instead called its text.  Locate text in the properties window and change its text the same way you changed a caption.
