How to get rid of "Untitled" in SDI app title bar?

[Ian Bowler]

Hello, I have a Single Document Interface application generated by AppWizzard. The title bar of the application displays "Untitled - MyApp". I want to get rid of the "Untitled -" so the title bar just reads, "MyApp". Any suggestions? Thanks! -Ian

go to the resource editor, then check the SDI frame properties and search the caption... you could also do it at run time with a little SetWindowText() on you main frame...

Isn´t it just AfxGetMainWnd()->SetWindowText("MyApp")? Didn´t try, but it´s a suggestion... Greez! Martin...

Right you are! And here I was thinking I'd have to override one of the CDocTemplate methods... I guess I over-thunk this one... lol... Thanks!

D'oh! Yes, you are right! (I definately over-thought this one... ) Thanks alot!

Most folks use:

BOOL CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow( CREATESTRUCT &cs )
{
cs.style &= ~FWS_ADDTOTITLE;
return CFrameWnd::PreCreateWindow(cs);
}

CDocument *doc; //get your document
doc.SetTitle("Any title can be given here");

Hope this will do. :)
