hello Roger
Can you tell me how I can do this menu with eXpress...

The harder way would be to create it by yourself with ownerdrawing, based on tabs and other items (buttons, statics). A little simpler would be to use AX-libraries like codejock. Anyway, this is a 10 to 15 years old ribbon style, looks like Office 2007/2010. This is how it looks nowadays:

There is a ribbon sample in the ..\Samples\codejock\commandbars directory of eXpress++. You will need a codejock license/trial. www.codejock.com

Hi,

I'm using Codejock since years. I tried the commandbar in 2008, and in my tests it seemed not very reliable in combination with xbase++.

i agree that Xbase++ ActiveX System need "more Power" to handle some Codejock Control.

when use Codejock Control i realize that there are "more" Controls as Xbase++ have like GRID
but it is all based on Windows API and in German Xbase Forum is a "Ribbon-LIB" Demo

so no need to use a ActiveX for Ribbonbar

now using harbour and C-Compiler i have a much better Performance of ActiveX when use (old) Codejock Control.
but Codejock ActiveX are > 10 Year old ... now i play with QT LIB from Nokia
