Custom Ribbons

[gheyman]

does anyone have the script to customize the ribbon. I found this on YouTube but cannot get it to work

<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2009/07/customui">
<ribbon startFromScratch="true">
<tabs>
<tab id="TSL label="TSL">
<group id="Group1" label="TLS">
<button id="MainMenu" label="New1" size="Normal" supertip="New2"/>
<button id="Form2" label="Form2" size="large" supertip="Open form 2"/>
</group>
</tab>
</tab>
</ribbon>
</customUI>

It is not merely some XML code that you need. You have to follow the correct series of steps to create and implement your customization.

Detailed instructions are here:

Ribbons for Access 2007 / Access 2010 – Access - Ribbons

Access 2007 Ribbon Website * Access 2010 Ribbon Website * Home of Ribbon Creator

www.accessribbon.de

and here:

Create a custom ribbon in Access - Microsoft Support

I have only done this in Excel as described here (probably similar but I'm not sure):

Change the Ribbon in Excel 2007 and up

There are also you tube videos to watch (I don't post these links as I avoid YouTube at work).
