 formMain.ActiveForm.Text += "   "  + name; 

may do your task easily

I think you are going to need to measure the form, and work out how many whitespace characters you need to insert in between the current form text, and the text you need to add to the right hand side.

You would then add your text to the current title.

eg:

string rightHandText = "[text]";
string whiteSpace = string.Empty.PadLeft( (your calculation for whitespace), ' ');

formMain.Text += String.Format("{0}{1}", whiteSpace, righHandText);

Note the += when setting the form.Text, this adds to the text rather than replacing it.

You can try

formMain.ActiveForm.Text += "               " + name; 

But this is dirty and undynamic.

i don't know any way you can set the second text with right alignment. If you really want so, I think you have to create a custom Window by your own.

this.Text += " text you want to add";
