Form Title - moving between Forms

I've titled all of the forms of an application - the same.
It is a multi-form application.

When I move between forms - I see flickering of blinking
of the Forms
title at the top. For example - all forms are
titled "ABC" - let's
say. If I move from 1 form to another - and both forms are
titled
ABC - then I should see no change in the title. No
flickering/blinking of the title.

However, I am seeing blinking. As if it changed the form
title
quickly from ABC - to - something else - then back to ABC
again.
What is the form's title being changed to - temporarily.
Is there any way to stop this from happening?

thank you.
 
Peter - thank you. I've opened the link - and will
definitely install the update.

I was wondering if you could help me clear up a few cloudy
areas. This update link that you are suggesting - based
on what I read (the fact that it uses ActiveSync) - it
updates some components ON the PPC -correct?
How can I tell what version of the .NET compact framework
is currently on my PPC? (I have a PPC 2003).
My thought is initially - no - on this last question - but
I was wondering if there is any way to integrate these
changes "in" (integrated) the application (CAB) that I'm
developing.
In other words - a way the user installs the
program/application CAB - and the .NET updates are
included as well. Keeping it simple for the end user.

thank you.
 
There are some details here on detecting the current version:-

There isn't an easy way to distribute the framework automatically with your
application, since it is installed in it's own CAB file, therefore you have
to use a custom installer on the desktop to install first the runtime, then
your application passing them separately to CeAppMgr. Some details here:-
http://wiki.opennetcf.org/ow.asp?CompactFrameworkFAQ/DetectVersionFromInstaller

You can also point your users to the redistributable version of the SP2
release since this is easy for end-users to install and will automatically
deploy to a connected device.
