Suggestion: Labels and Functions

[SondreB]

Maybe I've just missed this feature, but I would like to have a label
control that you can either bind to a data source or to a function.

There should be some basic built in functions, but should also be possible
to call .NET or JavaScript (for Forms Services) functions to get the content
for the labels.

Use case: on the print view of a form, there could be a label control that
outputs result from function "now()" which returns current date and time.

Typically would just use an expression box and remove the outline. This
looks just like text but can have any field or functions behind it. Use the
concat function to weave text and values together seamlessly.

Thanks, the Expression Box must have slipped from my eyes. Very handy
control indeed, and it has the functions and everything I was missing.

Thanks again!
