Self Contained Caption property

When set to True, the Self Contained Caption property causes the caption, as defined in the Caption property of the Components properties sheet, to display in a light gray color inside the field when the field contains no data. When the cursor is in the field, the caption text disappears and can be replaced by whatever the user specifies as the value for the field. If the cursor leaves the field with no value specified, then the caption text is again displayed.

This property is available only for Edit, ComboBox, and DateCombo components.
