Hello,

Take a look at the FlatTabView sample project.  You need to create your toolbar as a child of the CMDIChildWnd for your view to do this correctly.  See CChildFrame::OnCreate for more details...hope this helps.

I added the following code to a form view to add a toolbar to the top of the form...

int CProjectGenInfoFormView::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
     if (CProjectBASEFormView::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)
         return -1;

    CImageList imageList;
     imageList.Create(16, 16, ILC_COLOR8 | ILC_MASK,  1, 0);

     m_wndToolBar.CreateEx(this, TBSTYLE_FLAT | TBSTYLE_LIST | TBSTYLE_TRANSPARENT,   WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_TOP | CBRS_GRIPPER | CBRS_TOOLTIPS | CBRS_FLYBY | CBRS_SIZE_DYNAMIC);

     //AddButton is my own function, works ok

     m_wndToolBar.AddButton( 0, ID_PROJECTGENINFO_NEW, IDI_ICON1, "&New" );

     m_wndToolBar.MoveWindow( 2, 2, 400, 32 );

}

The problem is that the toolbar does not become enabled until the View is activated, once the view is deactivated the toolbar is deactivated. Is there a way to keep it activated at all times?

Thanks
