OK - what are the steps.
1. add title.h to the programs project and compile
2. add #include "title.h" to the main.prg
title.h has...#define TITLE_LOC "My Application Name"
3. in the main.prg... code
oapp.caption (title_loc)
is this all - it only seems to work once. when I change the #define TITLE_LOC
in title.h, it does not show the change.
