Hello there ...

I've created an add-in (XL02) that creates a new Menubar item next to
the Help menu. This new items is really just informational -- it
holds the new range structure for our product line -- and is quite
simple in operation. After clicking on the Menu header, a drop-down
appears with a list of 10 items; clicking on one of those 10 reveals a
sub-menu of available sub-headings; clicking on one the sub-headings
shows the lowest level of consolidation.

This add-in works great in XL02, and ok in XL07 ... it shows up on the
Add-Ins tab. However, I'd like to add the XML needed to add a Ribbon
grouping. I found some code on Ron de Bruin's site (Add Custom Group
in Built-in tab), but can't make it work for my purpose.

Any help you can give in creating this XML code is very much
appreciated ...

FYI, the add-in macro that fires on_open is called 'CreateMenu', in
case you need this for the onAction callback.

Thanks, Ray
 
Hi Joel -

This is the where I got the examples that I originally referred to ...
in the download with 9 examples. I hadn't seen the XMLCreator-1.5
tool, so I downloaded and looks like it could be helpful -- I think I
need several split-buttons to achieve my goal. After reviewing the
Table generated within that tool, I think I need a bit more help with
how to structure the table (put this on that line, and that on this
line, etc) to achieve the 'cascading' effect that I'm looking for.

Suggestions?

Thanks for responding ..

Rgds, Ray
 
I don't have 2007 installed on my PC so I can't verify any code that I would
post. I would ask Ron Debruin for help. You can use the emial address on
his webpage. He usually read most of the posting on this site but you can
email him directly
