How do you change the caption on the titlebar after it was created?
My french interferes with the search keyword

Sorry finally found the proper key word. It is "SetWindowText, hwnd,"text". Second question going thru a few examples on PB's site "text" parameter has to be Asciiz or a regular string. It seems to work fine with regular strings but just wondering.

You can also use FireFly's built in function to change the caption of the Form. FireFly and Windows treats controls/forms as windows.
FF_Control_SetText hWndForm, "My New Title"
Again looked thru the functions and didn't see that one. Will use FF's as I am not very familiar with api uses.

Usually PB doesn't put too much emphasis on it, but in memory I think when you store a regular string they allocate the length of it plus one and terminate it with a nul, so either method will work (For things you pass a value at least...not when the API gives your string a value unless you assign it something to make it the needed size since they are variable)
