Edit Window Title Bar

Comment:
I track several stock portfolios with a neat little free program called NetStock. I configure and load a separate instance of NetStock for each portfolio. However, each separate program window contains the same text in the title bar, i.e., "Netstock 1.74". I would like to be able to edit the text in the title bar so it displays the particular portfolio being monitored in its window, i.e., "Dow Industrials", or "Brokerage Account", for example. Does anyone out there know how this can be accomplished? Thanks.

Have you check the support site for the software?

Good suggestion. I didn't even consider the download site because since the program is free, I didn't expect support. But I just checked the site, http://www.splitcycle.com/, and noticed a forum for posting messages. I have posted my message there. Let's see what kind of response it gets. Thanks for your suggestion.

Answer: It's in there! The menu bar for the NetStock window includes a "Settings" button. The "Settings" drop-down menu contains an item called "Data Settings". Clicking this opens a dialog box named "Data Preferences". At the bottom of this dialog box is a place to enter your custom title bar text.
Case closed.
