Thank you for the response. It is definitely a drawing problem( I have checked the string buffer, and the new string is in it and it is null terminated). You can also tell on the display because you see a partial letter as opposed to a string with appended letters after it. I am using FrmSetTitle and when I was checking around I also saw that this was documented as fixed in OS3.0. I even went so far as to add FrmUpdateForm after I set the title, which I believe is the documented "fix" prior to OS3.0. I have even tried this on the emulator and it seems to work there as well. I am going to see if I can get the OS3.5.2H ROM for the emulator from Handspring and see what happens.
Thanks again. Kevin P.

Are you using FrmCopyTitle or FrmSetTitle? Is the problem possibly that the new string isn't null-terminated so that the end of the old string is still in the buffer or does it look more like a drawing problem? Is another window or form popped up that might trigger a 'save-behind' redraw of the old title?
