Change Title text in my MainFrame

[User 1354]

I want to change the Titletext of my MainFrame at startup. Now I use SetWindowText(...) but this only takes effect when I click on my menu (I dont know why). But I want the text written at startup. Does anyone know what I am doing wrong? Thank you...

Hope This will Help void CFAdhlyView::OnDraw(CDC* pDC) { CFAdhlyDoc* pDoc = GetDocument(); ASSERT_VALID(pDoc); pDoc->SetTitle (_T("Set The title here")); }

Override CFrameWnd::OnUpdateFrameTitle(). This is a virtual function, but undocumented, so you'll need to add the prototype yourself. When this function is called, call SetText() to set the frame window caption. The default implementation is in winfrm.cpp, line 1746. You can check that out to get an idea of what you can do with the function.

MFC uses two parts for a window title composed of a "frame window title" followed by a "document name", but the frame window title is used only if the FWS_ADDTOTITLE Frame-Window Style is set. See: http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/q129/0/95.asp for the Microsoft Knowledge Base article "INFO: Format of the Document Template String" that describes how to modify the windowTitle and docName strings; that might be relevant for you. The document name can be changed using CDocument::SetTitle.
