How to set the title of a batch program in MS-Windows
When you run a batch mode Progress program (i.e. using -b) MS-Windows
normally shows an icon in the Desktop/Explorer Shell which has a
title of "Progress".
To change that title to something more useful, just put the following
line of code at the beginning of your batch program:
ASSIGN DEFAULT-WINDOW:TITLE = 'Your Title Goes Here'.
You could also make the title somewhat dynamic by passing the title
to your batch program using the -param startup parameter.
The following shows how to accomplish it:
ASSIGN DEFAULT-WINDOW:TITLE = SESSION:PARAMETER.
The SESSION:PARAMETER attribute is given the value you pass to
Progress using the -param startup parameter. The following command
line will set the window title to "My Batch Program":
PROWIN32.EXE -b -p SomeBatchProgram.P -param "My Batch Program"
