ActiveX frame has no WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI messages. You must emulate it:

SetTimer(WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI, 100, NULL);

void CActiveXDocControl::OnTimer(UINT nIDEvent)
{
    // Since we're in an OCX, we don't control the message loop,
    // so CWinThread::OnIdle is never called. That means we have
    // to periodically pump the ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI messages
    // by hand.

    SendMessageToDescendants(WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI, TRUE);
    COleControl::OnTimer(nIDEvent);
}

I am also using the CXTPToolBar inside an ActiveX ATL-Control.
So I am also struggling with the CmdUI stuff.

I added a messagel handler in my message map

BEGIN_MSG_MAP(CMyControl)
..
MESSAGE_HANDLER(WM_IDLEUPDATECMDUI, OnIdleUpdateCmdUI)
CHAIN_MSG_MAP(CComCompositeControl<CMyControl>)
END_MSG_MAP()

and I DO get these messages.

I have another problem :
The wParam of the OnIdleUpdateCmdUI handler means disableIfNoHandler. As I don't have any UpdateUI Handlers - all my buttons are disabled.

How do you write an UpdateUI handler for a toolbar UI in an ActiveX control ?

same as standard MFC application. add

ON_UPDATE_COMMAND_UI(ID, OnUpdateID) in message map of Frame.
