What object model? IP 2003 or 2007? For 2003, something like:

thisApplication.ActiveWindow.Caption = "Service Request";

For 2007, not sure.

No, this is the right place, but you should change the title of the thread to make more sense. It doesn't tell us anything, but if it asked the question, then people may be more inclined to answer it.

There actually may be some backdoor method for modifying the manifext to make it do that, but it's not a regular setting in InfoPath. If anyone knows how to do it, it will be the Qdabra folks here on InfoPathDev.

To explain why the form gets named that instead of your template's file name, it's because the template is an XSN, but when invoked in the client, it is an XML file that is not associated with the filename of the template.

Yes, I do have that in place already. But it was a request to have the Caption on the title bar state Server Request instead of Form1.

No, but you can auto-generate a filename for the user upon submission, and it can have the words "server request" in it:

InfoPath – Auto-Generating Filenames

I need to be able to change the caption Form1 to Server Request when the file is opened, is this possible?

I have created a template and gave it a name(Server request). But when a user brings up the form to fill it out says Form1. Is there a way for the form to say Server Request when then bring up the new form? I already have it saving as a different name.

It was requested not to say Form1 when the user opens the file.
