LeftText

If set to TRUE, the descriptive text associated with the check box or radio button will appear to the left of the control; if set to FALSE the text appears on the right.

LeftText is most commonly used to try and line up the checkbox with a series of labels and edit boxes. This is rarely satisfactory as it is not possible to gurantee the length of the text preceeding the text box. Thus it is always recommended to use a dbedit with a boolean Type$ property ("B").
