    Is there any way to change the text of the start menu ?

    You can't change the actual text because the button has no text, rather, it has a bitmap. So in order to change the "text", you must change the bitmap.

    I think you can do it like this:
    Get the handle
    Get the DC
    Draw on it
    Subclass it
    Redraw when it receives the wm_paint message.

    You can't subclass windows that belong to other processes in VB without a C++ DLL.
