>Ok, I just did. Works fine, but there is a problem: how can I put version 1.0 at the right corner of the screen? IOW, calculate number of spaces between 'normal' caption and 'version 1.0'? Otherwise it doesn't look right.

I can't play with it right now, but I assume you can try to use SYSMETRIC() function to determine available space for the form caption, minus width of button used in the title bar, and then adjust the number of required spaces in the middle of your caption.
