Editing the Control Properties
To edit the display properties of a control:
1. On the Input/Output tab, in the Controls group, use the Edit icon. Alternatively, right-click the control and select Edit from the shortcut menu.
2. Edit the script in the Script Editor tab and add the desired properties. Alternatively, switch to the Properties tab to see the available options of a particular control.
* 
When you set properties using the Properties tab, check if that property is already set in the script. If it was not set in the script, then the value that you set in the Properties tab is the one that the control uses. If the value of the property is already set in the script, changing it in the Properties tab without removing it from the script only affects the control in the current session. The next time you open the worksheet, the script overwrites the value in the Properties tab.

The Script Editor tab allows you to write and edit your script in the command prompt window.
Undo Redo OpenSave—Commands for working with scripts.
Line and Column—Indicate your location in the command prompt.
—Select the scripting language.
