First, create a global var to hold the new label, e.g.,
Char gNewLabel[] = "print";
Then, when you want to change the label, use CtlSetLabel, e.g.,
CtlSetLabel(FrmGetObjectPtr(frmP, FrmGetObjectIndex(frmP, MainTestButton)),
gNewLabel);
(This assumes the object ID of your button is MainTestButton and frmP is a
pointer to your form.)
The reason I suggest a global var for the label is that CtlSetLabel doesn't
make a copy of label -- it just points to the label you set. So you have to
keep the label in memory for as long as the button label might be displayed.
