Customization

PurposeThis sample demonstrates customizing the ToolbarControl at run time. The ToolbarControl is used in conjunction with the MapControl and the Control Commands. The AddItem method is used within the Form_Load event to add new Items to the ToolbarControl with their Style set. The Customize method determines whether the ToolbarControl can be customized at run time.
