Thanks for everyone gives the suggestions.

I'm only want to show the thumbnail image, and there is no other needs.

My working now is let the OnUpdate()(other view will call the DOC's
UpdateAllViews() ) in the view(for show the thumbnail image) calling the
OnDraw() and draw the image.

First problem is that I don't know this is the correct way of doing so.

Sencond problem is that I can't draw the thumbnail image by imitating
other's source code("ImageTool" from code project) from the Internet. The
source code is as following:

//************ code ******************
The project include a memdc.h which the author writes himself.

void CPreviewDlg::OnDrawItem( int nIDCtl, LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT lpDrawItemStruct )
{
    if( lpDrawItemStruct->itemAction & ODA_DRAWENTIRE )
    {
        CMemDC *pMemDC = NULL;
        pMemDC = new CMemDC( lpDrawItemStruct->hDC );
        lpDrawItemStruct->hDC = pMemDC->m_hDC;

        CRect rect; GetClientRect( rect );
        HBRUSH hBrush = ::CreateSolidBrush( RGB(255, 255, 255) );

        ::FillRect( lpDrawItemStruct->hDC, rect, hBrush );

        DeleteObject( hBrush );
        CImageToolDoc *pDoc = (CImageToolDoc*)
((CMainFrame*)AfxGetMainWnd())->GetActiveDocument();

        if( pDoc->m_pSelectedImage != NULL )
        {
            Graphics graphics( lpDrawItemStruct->hDC );
            graphics.SetInterpolationMode(InterpolationModeHighQualityBicubic);
            graphics.DrawImage( pDoc->m_pSelectedImage,
                                 Rect( lpDrawItemStruct->rcItem.left,
                                       lpDrawItemStruct->rcItem.top,
                                       lpDrawItemStruct->rcItem.right - lpDrawItemStruct->rcItem.left,
                                       lpDrawItemStruct->rcItem.bottom - lpDrawItemStruct->rcItem.top));
        }

        delete pMemDC;
    }
}
//************ code ******************
The problem is that there's no "int nIDCtl" and "LPDRAWITEMSTRUCT
lpDrawItemStruct" parameter for OnDraw()!!!

The only argument for using a form view is if there would ever be a chance
of needing more controls added. Resizing a picture control in a formview is
easy and looks about the same as the solution you are demonstrating. If OP
is sure they will never need any other controls (like description info, path
info, ability to select image, etc.) then this method is likely easier to
implement (although not a lot easier).

I disagree with doing it this way. If he is only going to display an image
on a window why go through the overhead of CFormView and a CStatic. Why
not simply draw the image himself in the views paint routine. This way he
has full control, if later he wants to add scrolling he can do that (where
if he had a CFormView with a static control it would be difficult), and
also can avoid flickering by overriding the erasebackground message.

void CMyView::OnPaint()
{
       CPaintDC dc(this);
       CMemDC MemDC;
       MemDC.CreateCompatibleDC(&dc);
       int Saved = MemDC.SaveDC();
       MemDC.SelectObject(m_Bmp);
       //calculate X, and Y based on the window size and Width and Height
of bitmap
       ....
       dc.BitBlt(X,Y,Width,Height,&MemDC,0,0,SRCCOPY);
       MemDC.RestoreDC(Saved);
}
