12.3. Ribbon Customization

Because you could customize your applications by creating custom menu bars and toolbars in previous versions of Office or Access, you want similar functionality for the Ribbon. Microsoft has created a rich customization model that enables you to create your own Ribbons for use in your applications. Ribbon customizations are written in XML, and must conform to a specified schema that can be downloaded from the Microsoft website. To find the download, search http://microsoft.com/downloads for "2007 XML Schema Reference."
