Here is some code that plots the date and number on the same line. Maybe this will get you started.

Vars: LoVal(GetAppInfo(aiLowestDispValue));
Vars: HiVal(GetAppInfo(aiHighestDispValue));
Vars: Str3(""), TxID1(0);
if CurrentBar = 1 then TxID1 = Text_New(Date, Time, Close + 3, "00");
if LastBarOnChart then begin
        Str3 = ELDateToStr(Date) + "  " + NumToStr(MyNumber, 0);
        Text_SetLocation(TxID1, Date, Time, LoVal + 0.2 * (HiVal - LoVal));
        Text_SetString(TxID1, Str3);
        Text_SetColor(TxID1, red);
        Text_SetStyle(TxID1, 2, 2);
end;
