I've been playing around with creating my first custom ribbon. I want to
store the ribbons in the SQLServer backend, but Access is not recognizing
the linked table.

1) Can the XML be stored in a linked table or does it have to be a local
table?
2) Can the XML be stored in a SQLServer table?

2: Yes. For example all ADP applications with ribbon would do it that
way. You can use Application.LoadCustomUI to load the ribbon XML from
anywhere.

Thanks. I was going to go the ADP route then got wind that MS's official
stance is that ODBC is preferred. Imagine MS backpeddling.
