thanks oleg,

What will happen in the event that the caption is too long for the available space? Will xtpFlagControlStretched automatically truncate the text and place an ellipse at the end of it??????

I have a commandbar with two tools on it, a Popup control and a Close button created using the following code:

cBar.EnableDocking (xtpFlagStretched)
 Set popCtrl = .Controls.Add(xtpControlPopup, 1, "My Tasks")
 popCtrl.Style = xtpButtonCaption
 Set btnCtrl = .Controls.Add(xtpControlButton, 2, "x")
 btnCtrl.Style = xtpButtonCaption
 btnCtrl.Flags = xtpFlagRightAlign

This code creates a commandbar with the Popup control text, then the popup button on the left and the close button control on the right of the commandbar. The two controls are seperated by the space based on the width of the commandbar

Is there anyway to stretch the popup control so that it's popup button appears on the right, next to the close button, and its text still appears aligned left.
