Hi,
I have an application which has a lot of windows, that can be docked to a control bar or be undocked. My problem is that i want to use "Tab" button on the keyboard to swotch between these windows.
Thanks,
Keyur

Each CExtControlBar adds itself into a global array of bars in the constructor and removes in the destructor. This means the array generated by the _GetFrameControlBars() method uses an order which depends only on method parameters.

Thank You!
I had one more concern, what order does the _GetFrameControlBars() returns the array in? would it always be the same order?
Like if i open up 5 windows... would the function be in order i.e. the latest at zero index and so on?

You can implement the PreTranslateMessage() method in your main frame class to handle tab key pressing. You can get an array of needed control bars using the CExtControlBar::_GetFrameControlBars()static method. Sending the WM_COMMAND message to the main frame window and specifying bar’s dialog control identifier in WPARAM message parameter will activate and focus any resizable control bar in any state.
