Well, a grumble, actually... can anyone explain the pressing reason for
ASP+ serverside controls having .Text properties, whilst the corresponding
VB object still has a .Caption property?

this is speculation ;)
i would imagine that the propery is called "text" since the value is the
text that gets emitted when the control is rendered.
of course, you can always create a new control derived from the control with
the .Text propery and write:
public string Caption{
get{return (string)base.Text;}
set{base.Text = Caption;)
}

I guess. It's just that a page may be covered in text, but I tend to regard
a caption as more than just text. Isn't it text that's tied to it's control
and is intended to explain it? As in:
<asp:Button id="Armegadon"
text="Do not press this button"
onclick="LaunchMIRBs_Click"
runat="server"/>
