Native vertical scrollbar are always on the right (and horizontal always on
the bottom).  To put a scrollbar on the left, you would not use
owner-drawing, but instead you would have to disable the native scrollbar
altogether (remove the WS_VSCROLL style), then create your own individual
scrollbar window via CreateWindowEx() with the SCROLLBAR window class, then
position the scrollbar as desired, and then handle the scrolling of the
control manually as needed.

Incidently I am not sure why you want to do this.

It's is worth baring in mind that user EXPECT the fundamentals of the GUI to
be where they expect them. If i needed to scoll down, but did not see a
scroll bar on the right then I would assume it was a program error, and that
there was no scroll bar, not that it was in a different place, similar to
always having menus at the top, and the close, maximise, and minimise
buttons on the top right of the form.
