Barebones ribbon example. If I sendmessage a bitbtn (which I have to look up, can't remember how) to change it to a regular button will it retain it's style from a style dialog?

Button messages are not valid for files with Windows XP Manifest files. $0f4,$7 comes in handy for disabling a button without changing appearance but would become a group box in win95/win98/winme

To get the entire effects of a ribbon control you'd have to use a model similar to http://www.vdsworld.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=36237 because they drop down over the main window with a sub-window and ride the control up creating an overlap effect. So there'd be another variance involved.

Personally, I find the third variance to be an absolute annoyance. Below is good enough.

Thanks,
