1. ATTN Derek: ReBar issues

Derek,

    I hate to draw you away from the contest (although with all the
submissions, maybe you need it), but I'm having an issue with ReBars.

    I can create a ReBar and plenty of ReBarBands no problem. But when
I add a control to a ReBarBand, it likes to fill the while ReBarBand.
And when I try to put multiple controls in a ReBarBand, the last one
fills the ReBarBand, and any caption I may have set for the control is
set as the caption of the ReBarBand.

    This is very troubling, as I *know* this worked several versions
ago, and I liked using ReBarBands. Now that I have a reason to use
them, I can't! Help!

    Here's a demo of my problem:

include Win32Lib.ew

constant
    Main = create( Window, "Test", 0, Default, Default, 640, 480, 0 ),

    bar = create( ReBar, "", Main, 0, 0, 0, 34, 0 ),
    band1 = create( ReBarBand, "band1", bar, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0 ),
    btn1 = create( PushButton, "btn1", bar, 0, 0, 30, 30, 0 ),
    btn2 = create( PushButton, "btn2", bar, 0, 0, 30, 30, 0 )
	
    addToBand( btn1, band1 )
    addToBand( btn2, band1 )

    WinMain( Main, Normal )
