[foxboro] Background Text object SET CONTENT

Hi List,

In Foxdraw what is a dmcmd alternative to SET TEXT CONTENT of background text 
object?  I need to set the numeric value of a background text object to 
whatever the Operator is entering on the FV into a MATH block .RI01 and then I 
also need to get that same MATH.RO04 and set that RO04 into a DGAP's GAPDB?

Is the only way to do this a 2-object process?  For example, the first step is 
to get the background text's display contents into RI01; then a 2nd object   -- 
 perhaps a rectangle that resembles a button  -- must be clicked by the 
Operator to do an omset of the MATH.RO04 into the DGAP's GAPDB?

TAC said there is no published solution of an alternative to SET TEXT/NUMERIC 
CONTENT.

Thank you so much.
