SetWindowText

[savitha]

I have a window which is an SDI. I want to set the title using SetWindowText("Test"); in the view of the project. I tried giving this in the constructor of the View. It is giving me a GPF. Please suggest me a solution to this problem.

Thank you
Savitha.

Hi Savitha,
Try to use SetWindowText() in OnDraw() function of the view window.

Hi. Kanwardeep.I tried calling SetWindowText() from OnDraw(). It looked like SetWindowText("Test App"); I did not provide the handle to the main window. Will it recoginze that the title of the main window has to be changed or else should i provide some handle/object along with the SetWindowText(). The solution provided did not work. .Please clarify this doubt.

Thankyou.

Savitha.

Hi, you can call GetDocument()->SetTitle() in your view's OnDraw() function.

Hi Savitha,

you can use GetDocument()->SetTitle("Title"); in OnInitialUpdate() message handler of View class.

When creating new document it is like this :
CDocument m-pCliDoc = NULL;
m_pCliDoc = pDocTemplateCli->OpenDocumentFile( NULL, TRUE);
if(m_pClidoc)
m_pCliDoc->SetTitle("TestTitle");

Bye,
