    The SetWindowText function changes the text of the specified window’s title bar (if it has one). If the specified window is a control, the text of the control is changed.

    Code:
    BOOL SetWindowText(
    
        HWND hWnd,	// handle of window or control
        LPCTSTR lpString 	// address of string
       );
    Parameters:

    hWnd:
    Identifies the window or control whose text is to be changed.

    lpString:
    Points to a null-terminated string to be used as the new title or control text.
    hope that helped
