Help ! I can't find the "field" tab for an object in the library

Just starting out with the software. I want to place a text box that spans several lines and "allow multiple lines" in a form I am building. The only problem is I can't find the field tab for the text box object. The only two tabs I have at the top of the object library is "Object Library" and "Fragment Library"

What am I missing?

Click on the Object Library. Below that there shoudl be three libraries (My Favorites, Standard and Custom). The Textfield is in the Standard library. If all else false you can use the Insert Menu and then choose standard from there.

Thanks Paul I have all 3 . As I understand it I should be able to change the properties of the text box object but I can't find the tab or menu to do this

All the help files show the properties for each object available under a field tab that I cannot find.

Under the Window menu choose to activate the Object palette. This palette wil adjust itself to show you properties based on the object selected.
