Button:

 Buttons can be used to execute various commands in QlikView. QlikView allows us to execute an action, or a sequence of actions, when a button is clicked.

 While creating the button, there are a wide variety of actions that can be assigned to it. These actions can also be chained, so that one click on a button triggers a sequence of actions.

 You have the choice between a Plain background, Aqua, which gives the button a glassy look, and Image.

Text Object:

 Text objects are used for adding information to a QlikView document.

 They can be used to show text information or an image in the layout.

 They can be moved and positioned anywhere on a sheet, just like any other sheet object.

 Text objects can also be used effectively for displaying the results of calculations, and to create backgrounds.

Hope it is clear now
