A literal widget is the label for a static field. If a field has a side label, you can find the handle of a literal widget by reading the field's SIDE-LABEL-HANDLE attribute. If the field has a column label, you can find the handle of the literal by examining the children of the frame's background field group. You cannot create a literal widget dynamically.
