Although I had found a couple of prior threads showing how to change the title of a module's container in code during the Page_Init event of the mdoule control as follows:

ModuleConfiguration.ModuleTitle = "A Module With A Modified Title"

I really needed to do this in the Page_Load handler as module settings and ViewState values were not available in Page_Init.  After looking at a DNN page's view source and at the ContainerControl object in the debugger, I came up with the following two approaches which work equally well and chose #2 to use:

#1:

Dim titleSkinObject As Control = Me.ContainerControl.FindControl("dnnTitle")
If Not titleSkinObject Is Nothing Then
    Dim lblTitle As Control = titleSkinObject.FindControl("lblTitle")
    If Not lblTitle Is Nothing Then
         CType(lblTitle, Label).Text = "A Module With A Modified Title"
    End If
End If

#2:

Dim ctl As Control = DotNetNuke.Common.FindControlRecursiveDown(Me.ContainerControl, "lblTitle")
If Not ctl Is Nothing Then
     CType(ctl, Label).Text = "A Module With A Modified Title"
End If

Hope this helps some one looking to do the same.

Thanks for sharing tip/trick.  I saw your post to fix FCKEditor value not saved in Settings page.  That was a great post too.  Keep it up.

Thanks for the great post. Here is the code in C#:

Control ctl = Globals.FindControlRecursiveDown(this.ContainerControl, "lblTitle");
if ((ctl != null))
{
((Label)ctl).Text = "A Module With A Modified Title";
}
