I have visual studio 2008, and want to build an GUI application that on the left side has a frame that can be minimized like the firefox bookmark sidebar. So my questions are: 1) What type of project do I need? 2) What controls actually make up the sidebar. 3) What do I make the main frame so that I can resize it when the sidebar is open. A example would also be cool.
Thanks in advance.

It looks like a TaskPane (CTaskPane ) attached to a simple SDI frame window (taking into account firefox is doing a lot of things custom with their own toolkit (I think, and I’ve been known to be wrong)
Download the MFC VS2008 feature pack (with the new UI controls) and the feature pack samples and have a look at some of the sample projects (for example “TaskPane” and “VisualStudioDemo”
