In my limited MS Windows SDK knowledge, I think Windows will automatically
hide the horizontal scroll bar until you have a line of text or graphics
which is wider than the window width. So, you code could be working
all along. May be try to manual size your window to very narrow and see
if the horizontal scroll bar appear.
