Rolf,
Please read my original posting (and all of them). You tell me if that's polite enough.
Perhaps I have a different perspective to you, and admittedly perhaps not the whole picture.
I am not happy when I don't get a response, because it is difficult then for me to make use of LabVIEW which I have invested vast amounts of my own time and money into. I do not however take it out on anyone here, especially if they don't work for NI.
As a former AE for NI my understanding is that it is their responsibility to answer any questions, otherwise I can just hassle the local AE. So when I get no response or resolution from NI then I am not happy with this; that is true.
I won't go into it anymore as I have work to do. I don't think that I am being rude. Don't take it personally, I try to make my questions interesting for everyone;-)

To your question: Yes!
Obviously a ribbon bar is a Tab-structure with all kinds of buttons arranged in a small upper portion of the Front panel. With basic LabView skills you can make a ribbon bar without Microsoft stuff. But you can costumize LV buttons with Office icons (and I do know how to costumize LV controls).
Did you ever asked Microsoft for a solution? Do you think you get an answer? Do you think you get an answer if you talk to them like in this forum?

This question came up again in the UI Interest Group Community so I decided to take a second look at it. Most of the effect can be easily recreated in LabVIEW if you think creatively:
You can grab the code and images from here.
