add cool toolbar 256corler is easy,only two file and onCreate func is needed also the MainFrame.toolbar must resize to what real need and also the load width is same to it.

1:func use it:
int CMainFrame::OnCreate(LPCREATESTRUCT lpCreateStruct)
{
if (CFrameWnd::OnCreate(lpCreateStruct) == -1)
return -1;

if (!m_wndToolBar.CreateEx(this, TBSTYLE_FLAT, WS_CHILD | WS_VISIBLE | CBRS_TOP
| CBRS_GRIPPER | CBRS_TOOLTIPS | CBRS_FLYBY | CBRS_SIZE_DYNAMIC) ||
!m_wndToolBar.LoadToolBar(IDR_MAINFRAME))
{
TRACE0("Failed to create toolbar\n");
return -1; // fail to create
}

if (!m_wndStatusBar.Create(this) ||
!m_wndStatusBar.SetIndicators(indicators,
sizeof(indicators)/sizeof(UINT)))
{
TRACE0("Failed to create status bar\n");
return -1; // fail to create
}

// TODO: Delete these three lines if you don't want the toolbar to
// be dockable
//m_wndToolBar.LoadTrueColorToolBar(44, IDB_BITMAP2,IDB_BITMAP4,IDB_BITMAP2);

m_wndToolBar.LoadTrueColorToolBar(60, IDB_toolbarbmp,IDB_toolbarbmp,IDB_toolbarbmp);

m_wndToolBar.EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY);
EnableDocking(CBRS_ALIGN_ANY);
DockControlBar(&m_wndToolBar);

return 0;
}


2:
gloable var:
protected: // control bar embedded members
CStatusBar m_wndStatusBar;
// CToolBar m_wndToolBar;
CTrueColorToolBar m_wndToolBar;
