Hello,

See our sample. You must catch OBN_XT_FOLDERCHANGE and return TRUE.

Actually I recommend you CXTPTaskPanel class as much more flexible.

CXTOutBarCtrl  is quite obsolete.

Is it possible to insert a CXTOutBarCtrl inside a Dialog Based Application?

I do the following:

1.- Add a member variable in MyDialogDlg.h:

             CXTOutBarCtrl m_CtrlOutBar;

2.- Create de control in OnInitDialog() like this:

     CRect dimensions;

     GetClientRect(&dimensions);

     if (!m_CtrlOutBar.Create(WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE|WS_CLIPCHILDREN, dimensions, this, IDC_OUTBAR, OBS_XT_DEFAULT|OBS_XT_ANIMATION))

{

   TRACE0("Failed to create outlook bar.");

    return FALSE;

}

3.-  Add two folders to the Outlook Bar:

    (inside OnInitDialog() for example)

    int iFolder;

    iFolder = m_CtrlOutBar.AddFolder(_T("Folder 1"), 0);

    iFolder = m_CtrlOutBar.AddFolder(_T("Folder 2"), 1);
