Stop colons from showing up in default labels

So, you drag and drop a tool, and automatically it says something like
Combo18: for the label. Or you drag and drop a field, the same thing
"Field_Name:" Is there a way to stop it from putting on that colon? It's
really annoying.

You can change the settings in the default controls. Open a form in form
view and open the properties window. Click on "Text Box" in the Tools
toolbar and the properties window will change to "Default Text Box." On the
Format tab scroll down to "Add colon" and change it to no. Your new text
boxes won't have colons on the labels. You can change any other default
control on your Tools toolbar the same way.
