AppBar

An App Bar is an application that docks on the desktop the same was as the task bar. This application show how to create such an application. It creates a dialogbox that docks at the top of your screen. The trick is to insure that other applications does not show in front of the AppBar. Windows does most of the job, we just have to send the rigth messages, which is done with SHAppBarMessage.
The application has an combobox with internet links you can open by pressing the Go button.
The code should compile with any windows compiler.
