Ali,
Is this FPD 2.5 or FPW 2.5?
I assume you must mean FPW.
It's been a long while, but I assume you have a top-level form that serves as your "Read Events" level.
In the properties window, look for the Caption property. This property determines the text displayed in the title bar of the form.
Best Regards,

If I understand your problem, you have a very old FoxPro application and the name of the company is hard-coded into it (probably to protect it from piracy). You now want to change that hard-coded name. You need the source code to do that; if you don't have that, you need the original developer and hope they have it.
I don't know, I think the demand is not as simple as Scott guessed and not piracy.
Wasn't legacy Foxpro versions like 2.5 and 2.6 coming with a Distribution Kit? Later, there was a setup wizard and then Installshield was added to the VFP package.
I have no idea how distribution worked in those days and I don't find a walkthrough or even just documentation about the Distribution Kit, but mainly there should be help documentation about using this kit and all steps that include to specify the vendor etc. for the distribution of software with it.
Obviously, that only works when you have the source code, so that aspect is true in any guess of Scott, Tamar and me.
To be honest, I still don't get what you're even after. The name of the distribution? Setup.exe? You don't just mean the file name, do you? You mean some meta information? A setup will usually display some information while installing, a vendor name, for example. And ideally the setup has a signature which allows the Windows Installation system to verify the vendor. And then the software name, the author(s), poerhaps. Do you mean the distributor, perhaps? Or in general, do you mean file meta data like this?
