Titlebar on smartphone

[ED]

VS2008, WM6 standard, smartphone.

How can I get the form's caption (.Text property) to display in the
titlebar.
On the emulator it displays in the titlebar, but not on the actual device.

Thanks,

ED.

Hi,

How can I get the form's caption (.Text property) to display in the
titlebar.
On the emulator it displays in the titlebar, but not on the actual device.

This sounds a little strange. What is displayed on the titlebar of the
actual device? Is it blank, or does it just show an incorrect title?

On Windows Mobile Professional (or Classic) one common hiccup is setting the
Form.Owner property which then causes the form to inherit it's owner's
title, but this feature doesn't apply to the Standard platform.

If possible are you able to share the code you are using to display the
form, or set the caption (if done in code)?

Hope this helps,
Christopher Fairbairn

The titlebar remained the same as in the home screen, with the different
icons. I reset the phone and now it works.

Thanks for responding.
