I am an AVS newbie.  I ran most of the auto-run AVS demo last night.  Today,
I'm reading various portions of the manuals trying to figure out how to do
what should be a simple thing for AVS (after all, it does complex graphics/
picture drawing):

I want to be able to display a floating point number in a box with a 
corresponding label.  For example:

   POSITION
  +---------+
X | 1234.56 |
  +---------+

I understand that first I used the Network Editor followed by the Layout 
Editor.  Unfortunately, I can't seem to find an appropriate module for
displaying a number.

Remember that I've just started using AVS.  I won't be taking the AVS class
until November.  Also, please don't send me any RTFMs :^).

Thanks.
