It is:

Me.Text = "ABC" for example, but if you are need to change the caption for a
different form other than the current one then you refer to it like this:

Dim frm As New Form2
frm.Text = "ABC"
frm.ShowDialog( )
frm.Dispose()

The above few lines declares a new instance of form2, sets its text (Caption
in VB6) to ABC, shows the form modally & destroys the object on close

I hope thi has helped

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
