How to create Floating Toolbar in VB6
I am an intermediate developer in VB6. I want to know if there is any way of creating a floating toolbar in VB6. Or if someone could help me creating a floating toolbar in VC++ and then using it in VB6 as a component
ASKER
I had checked it already, It does not solve my problem. I need a dockable and undockable toolbar just as the one in VB IDE
You can start by simply adding a new form as a toolbar, and make it non-modal.
To make it docked, you need to detect movement and make it go along for the ride.

I think you can use the Activebar,it's perfect!Or you can write a ocx in VC++,then use it in VB
