MFC DialogBar Explained With Example

In this example, we will see how to create and use MFC DialogBar Control. The DialogBar acts like a toolbar. Unlike toolbar, a dialog bar can have controls which we can place in it treating it as dialog. One can dock the DialogBar like a toolbar. To better visualize it, we can think of a tool bar with a radio button, a checkbox and a combo box in it. What we just now imagined can be easily achieved through a DialogBar control.
In this example we will design an MFC DialogBar, then we will place that in a Rebar Control so that we can dock it on the Main Frame window of the SDI application.
