Items in Oracle Forms such as text box, buttons etc. are supposed to be created during the design phase not at runtime.

For your requirement, you may want to create the text box at design time and set its display property to false. When needed to be displayed at runtime, just use set_item_property built-in to set the 'visible' property to 'TRUE'.

Hope it helps.
