If you embed a CToolBar object as a member of the dialogue class, then add a handler for the WM_CREATE message, then in the OnCreate() method it generates add these lines (stolen from CMainFrame as generated by AppWizard):

--- if (!m_wndToolBar.Create(this) ||
!m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar(IDR_MAINFRAME))
{
TRACE0("Failed to create toolbar\n");
return -1; // fail to create
}





---

(where IDR_MAINFRAME is a toolbar resource).

This should work. Does it help?
