Hi there got a problem with adding toolbars to a rebar. I just create a rebar as shown in the Platform SDK Documentation. Creating the Rebar works. Now I tried to add toolbars to the rebar. Creation of 1 or more toolbars is not the problem. The rebar allso shows grips, text and edges of the new bands, but the toolbars themself are not within the rebar bands. the are aligned on top of the application window, just as no rebar was set asd their parent. If I remove the WS_CHILD style when creating the toolbar, it will first create itself as a standalone window. When assigning it to a band and adding the band to the rebar, the toolbar is shown inside its area in the rebar. But the size info of the toolbars window rect is as big as the toolbar window shown for less than a second. Removing the WS_CHILD style seems not to be the right way using toolbars for rebars. Would be nice if somebody can help me to get the toolbars to be a regular child of the rebar, showing withing its specified area and having the correct window sizes! Please help... :D 
A second minor problem is that my toolbars always draw a horizontal separator line in the top. Would be nice if somebody could explain how to suppress it - tried some different style combinations, but failed. Code is copied from multiple files into one block. Hope I included everything needed to rebuild this problem: Include file: Main Source: Window Source:
