Thanks

For a "Free" implementation see here --> http://windowsribbon.codeplex.com/

and here for a walkthrough on implementing it --> http://blogs.microsoft.co.il/blogs/arik/archive/2009/12/23/windows-ribbon-for-winforms-part-0-table-of-contents.aspx

Most Ribbion Controls are added via a 3rd party control suite.

Some of the popular ones are

1. DevExpress DevExpress XtraBars Suite
2. DevComponents DevComponents Ribbion Control
3. Telerik Telerik RadRibbonBar
4. ComponentOne Component One Ribbion Bar

These are links to the WinForms controls most of the companies also have similar WPF versions of the control.

And Here is a link to a StackOverflow post about Free Controls SO Post

(I'm sure I didn't list all of the possible vendors)

You can find a ribbon control at http://www.devcomponents.com/dotnetbar/ribbon-control.aspx As I know, there isn't a ribbon control included in VS 2010 RC for WinForms

Microsoft's Ribbon Control Library DLL is an option. Click "License the Office UI" and follow the instructions from there. Unfortunately, the ribbon control provided here does not show in designer view. but it does have all of the functionality of the Ribbon.
