Why does a textbox on a report have a Control Sourse and no Value/Text
property

Is it a textbox? or do you have to put "text" in a label?

Why does a textbox on a report have a Control Sourse and no Value/Text

The textbox has a Control Source primarily because it's expected that the
report will draw its data from a table or query; however, if you need to
insert something else in that textbox, enter it in the Control Source this
way:

="text"
