J Jay B. Harlow Nov 26, 2006 #2 Bill, The closest I've seen is: http://blogs.msdn.com/jensenh/archi...the-2007-microsoft-office-user-interface.aspx Which allows you to license the "intellectual property rights in the UI". However!! it does not allow you to license the code! A number of control vendors offer commercial versions of the Ribbon that you can purchase. A number of these I understand have signed the license. If you find one please let me know, I plan on compiling a list of Ribbon controls...
