first, create a menu in your resource file. second, put a button to the toolbar that will open the menu up with a style BTNS_WHOLEDROPDOWN third, get a command handler handle the button's command ( WM_COMMAND message ) and lastly, write a method that creates the menu and tracks it. something like:

HMENU hM = ::LoadMenu(ATL::_AtlBaseModule.GetResourceInstance(), MAKEINTRESOURCE(ID_MENU);
HMENU hMPopUp = ::GetSubMenu(hM,0);
// calculate the point where the menu will show
::TrackPopupMenu(hMPopUp,TPM_TOPALIGN,pointX,pointY,0,m_hWnd,NULL);

that's the way i did it, i think you can handle the rest with the holy MSDN
