Solution 1

It is nothing else than a text input field or combo box and a search button placed on the toolbar.

Searching for "mfc toolbar search field" gives plenty of results. There is even one from the MSDN: Walkthrough: Putting Controls On Toolbars[^]

5ed; but, you missed the search event handler in the recipe.

Thank you.

But he did not asked for an event handler which is just the button click handler (and optionally a change notification from the edit field when search should be also performed during typing).

Sorry, I missed the wink character there. ;-) Your answer is enough.
