Just for grins, I tested it on my Vista Entreprise x64 machine, and it was not truncated. I used:

SetTitle(_T("_________1_________2_________3_________4_________5_________6_________7")
_T("_________8_________9_________A_________B_________C_________D_________E")
_T("_________F_________G_________H_________I_________J_________K_________L") );

in my CMainFrame::PreCreateWindow method, and all 210 characters were shown.

It does look like it is ,but I can't find out were it does it
if I call to low level function:

::SetWindowText(g_MainFrame->m_hWnd,"a234567890b234567890c234567890d234567890e234567890f234567890g234567890h234567890i234567890j234567890k234567890l234567890m234567890n234567890p234567890q234567890r234567890s234567890t234567890u234567890v234567890w234567890x234567890y234567890z234567890");
CString str;
g_MainFrame->GetWindowText(str);

then str is truncated.

Are you sure that your longer title isn't just being truncated by the drawing routines for the
title
bar? Use Spy++ to see if the window text is maintained.
