As far as I know you can't set a title for the whole runtime. But you could try to handle WM_SETTEXT and there don't let it set your caption. If this doesn't work you should set your title even when a window get's closed.

Perhaps you read over it, but he mentioned that the title of his mainframe is set back after closing a view. Thus his problem should not be a problem of SetWindowText.

What about setting the document title by GetDocument ()->SetTitle). Also, try changing the application title in the string table

If you mean you don't want to have the current document's filename in the title, then in CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow(), turn off the FWS_ADDTOTITLE style. --Mike-- I'm bored...
