Coolbar problem -

I want to know if there is some way i can restrict the user from expanding any band on the coolbar.
If the above is not possible, I have a text box on one of the bands and i want to restrict the width of the text box from increasing when the user increases the width of the band. Is this possible?
Any help is appreciated!!
