Change Title column of SharePoint list

Question

I want to rename the title column to ItemTitle in sharepoint list. How can i achieve this? I tried the below code:

SPList splist = spWeb.Lists["ListName"];
spWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = true;
splist.Fields["Title"].Title = "Item Title";
splist.Fields["Title"].Update();
splist.Update();
spWeb.Update();
spWeb.AllowUnsafeUpdates = false;

This code i am performing on WebProvisioned event. I want that whenvever the new site is created the title column of the particular list should be renamed to "Item Title".

Answer 1

Try the following:

var field = splist.Fields[SPBuiltInFieldId.Title];
field.Title = "Item Title";
field.Update();

field = splist.Fields[SPBuiltInFieldId.LinkTitle];
field.Title = "Item Title";
field.Update();

field = splist.Fields[SPBuiltInFieldId.LinkTitleNoMenu];
field.Title = "Item Title";
field.Update();

The Title column has other Calculated columns which are used in Views LinkTitle and LinkTitleNoMenu, you need to update these as well.
