This resource-definition statement creates a simple rectangle displaying left-aligned text. The text is formatted before it is displayed. Words that would extend past the end of a line are automatically wrapped to the beginning of the next line. The LTEXT statement, which can be used only in a DIALOG statement, defines the text, identifier, dimensions, and attributes of the control.
