Hi,
I do not have Form 4.5 to verify this but yes it is possible in Forms 6i.
Please check your Forms help in SET_ITEM_PROPERTY there is a Proeprty called PROMPT_TEXT.
Using this property you can change the Text of your lable provided your Intial Label is also written in the Promt Text property of item & not as boilerplate on the canvas.

HTH

In forms 4.5,
you can use set_item_property('item name',LABEL,'new name');

hope that helps
