Rebar turned out to be not so hard as I thought.  I've put the code up at

http://members.xoom.com/projects.html

Now I'll start on the documentation...

Cool. Most of the controls are that way: once you've figured out a class,
the rest of them seem to fall into place.

If you're looking for something to add to your list, I'd suggest replacing
the emulated tooltips with the real things. The emulated version works, but
not as well as I'd like it too. I suspect that there's a GDI font resource
leak in there, although I've never been able to confirm it. Just a
thought...

Again, congratulations!

Matt,

If I'm not mistaken, the "print" and "print setup" dialogs are also missing
from the library. It would be nice to have them available.

Also, I don't get a valid return from the MonthCalendar demo you provided
with your last Win32Libex release.

Lee.

The print dialog is wrapped; print setup (and print preview) are not.

Yep.  This was me getting tricky (or maybe just being lazy :).  I first
wrapped the message for getting the current selection, then for getting a
range of dates.  Unfortunately, I failed to notice that you have to use one
method or the other, depending on how you created the month calendar
control.  As the demo currently exists, it works ok with the range, but not
a single date.  If you have the style MCS_MULTISELECT (as the demo did), you
must use getSelectedDateRange().

Thanks for noticing!

I wrapped the page setup dialog (does a print preview dialog exist?).  I'm
not at all sure that it's doing everything it should be:  do I need to tell
the printer the page size? etc...  But it returns that information to the
user, and sets the printerDC per the user's input.  I'd appreciate if anyone
could help out with this...

Also, the resizing/getClientRect() updates are there.  You can get them at:

I'm a bit late on this topic due to vacation BUT I would like to see some
changes made to PrintDialog: specifically to be able to preselect printing
mode (landscape vs. portrait) before the user is presented the dialog.
