Each band can only contain one child control. However, you can add a child window that contains many controls:

$mainwindow = <main window code>

my $band = new Win32::GUI::Window (
    -parent   => $mainwindow,
    -name     => "RebarBand1",
    -popstyle => WS_CAPTION | WS_SIZEBOX,
    -pushstyle => WS_CHILD,
);

# create Date time control for band 1
my $DateTime = $band->AddDateTime (
    -name     => "DateTime",
    -pos      => [0, 0],
    -size     => [130, 20],
    -tip      => 'A date and time',
);
#set the format for the datetime control
$DateTime->Format('dd-MMM-yyyy HH:mm:ss');

#Add a button to band 1
$band->AddButton (
         -name     => 'Button',
         -pos      => [135, 0],
         -size     => [50, 20],

         -tip      => 'A Button',
         -onClick => sub {print 'button clicked' },
);

my $rebar = $mainwindow->AddRebar(
    -name   => "Rebar",
    -bandborders => 1,
);

#Insert band
$rebar->InsertBand (
  -child     => $band,
  -width     => 210,
  -minwidth  => 210,
  -minheight => 20,
);

Styles : Each band can have it's own style. As a default, each band has RBBS_CHILDEDGE | RBBS_FIXEDBMP

RBBS_BREAK = 1           The band is on a new line.
RBBS_FIXEDSIZE = 2       The band can't be sized. With this style, the sizing grip is not displayed on the band.
RBBS_CHILDEDGE = 4       The band has an edge at the top and bottom of the child window.
RBBS_HIDDEN = 8          The band will not be visible.
RBBS_FIXEDBMP = 32       The background bitmap does not move when the band is resized.
RBBS_VARIABLEHEIGHT = 64 The band can be resized by the rebar control.
RBBS_GRIPPERALWAYS = 128 The band will always have a sizing grip, even if it is the only band in the rebar.
RBBS_NOGRIPPER = 256     The band will never have a sizing grip, even if there is more than one band in the rebar.
RBBS_USECHEVRON = 512    The band will display chevrons if its width is less than the ideal width
