Set the Winform's Form Title using the Text property.
Can you elaborate more on the requirement, especially what you wish to achieve by changing the tile from a Text file?

Oh i just want to learn how to do it, iv seen programs where you can edit things just by using .txt files

If this is just a proof of concept ignore my comment below 
If this is to start creating configuration for your application a txt file will work, but is probably not the best option around there. You can use
- ini files (Please don't)
- xml files (better)
- App.config or similar (recommended, certainly if you want machine based settings)
- Database (I usually use this one as much as possible and use an app.config to point to the database)
Note that there is a difference between user settings (eg, language, application options, ...) and system settings (time outs, root paths, database connection strings, ...) You might want to split those.
Just for info.

you can change as this.text = "Title_form"

Yes, but i would like to know how to make it read from a .txt file called Title_form and change the forms title with that .txt
|
|
|
|
|
if you mean that you want to make your form title as your text file name???
|
|

No i want the program to read from a .txt called Title_form.txt and then inside that .txt i have the form name.
|
|
|
|
|
TextReader tr = new StreamReader(C\\test.txt);
//How many lines should be loaded?
int NumberOfLines = 15;
//Make our array for each line
string[] ListLines = new string[NumberOfLines];
//Read the number of lines and put them in the array
for (int i = 1; i < NumberOfLines; i++)
{
ListLines[i] = tr.ReadLine();
}
if the title is in number 5 line
this.text = ListLines[5];
one all the lines are added in the array then you can pick your desired one.
hope this will help you..

using System.IO;
Try that one.

Thank you so much all it works!

Sure you can just use the refactoring in the IDE
