    What's that thingy called? I'm trying to add one to my app. If you're not sure what I mean, open Windows Explorer and make the left pane much wider, which results in a now shorter right pane. What the heck is that thing called that lets you do that? The closet I've come so far is "Rebar control" and that seems to only apply to the one control it's attached to. I'm attempting to add one to my app using C++ through the API, so if you can step up and play "Name That Control" I'd appreciate it. No MFC references please. --chajadan

      They are called splitters. Look up the CSplitterWnd class Nish

        Well that definitely gave me an anchor point for my searches, but I'm looking for the direct Win32 API calls I need to make, not the MFC ones. Perhaps if I knew of a good MFC reference that detailed the underlying API calls things would be much easier on me, but I don't. --chajadan

          Splitters are not a built-in control, you'll need to code them yourself. For a good reference, check out MFC Internals which goes into painstaking detail on MFC's splitters. --Mike-- Just released - RightClick-Encrypt v1.4 - Adds fast & easy file encryption to Explorer My really out-of-date homepage Sonork-100.19012 Acid_Helm
