Customizing a toolstrip in C# windows forms

I have a requirement to implement a toolbar similar to microsoft word 2007 using C#.

Actualy I need not implement ribbon control. I just have to implement a similar toolbar that is shown when we click on the tab of the ribbon. Just like grouping some common buttons/controls together (some buttons开发者_Go百科 arranged in horizontal and some in vertical)

How can we do it ?

I suggest to use a RibbonControl. It does everything you want. There are many free and commercial RibbonControls available for Windows Forms and WPF.

For example:

• http://ribbon.codeplex.com/
• http://fluent.codeplex.com/
• http://www.devcomponents.com/dotnetbar/ribbon-control.aspx
