What would be the best way to make that CControlBar-Derived class the full width of it's parent.

CSize CMyControlBar::CalcFixedLayout(BOOL bStretch, BOOL bHorz)
{
   // Get the parent's client window size
   //  in case we need that info to layout 
   //  controls
   CRect ParentClientRect;
   GetParent()->GetClientRect(&ParentClientRect);

   //
   // calc the layout of all the controls here
   // ...

   int desiredheight = ...;
 
   return CSize(ParentClientRect.Width(), desiredheight);
}

CSize CMyControlBar::CalcDynamicLayout(int nLength, DWORD dwMode)
{
   return CalcFixedLayout(dwMode & LM_STRETCH, dwMode & LM_HORZ);
