in reply to Where is my string going in Win32::API ?

This may not be useful in your particular case, but you can change the title bar of a Win32::GUI window with:
$window->Text("New title")
Does that "solve" your problem?

    No, because the point of my experiment is to suppliment Win32::GUI text routines with something that will handle Unicode. Setting the text in the framework turned it into 3 UTF bytes as indivial 8-bit characters—it does not respect the ${^WIDE_SYSTEM_CALLS} setting.
