You can use the toolbar control (CToolBarCtrl) to create a control window containing buttons and optional spaces. Each button in the toolbar control window sends a command message to the parent window as the user chooses it. Typically, the buttons in a toolbar correspond to items in the application's menu, providing an additional and more direct way for the user to access an application's commands.
