Need to create a custom UI Ribbon for the new Microsoft Office Access 2007? Viki Selca and Clint Covington of Microsoft wrote a tutorial, "Ribbon Extensibility in Access 2007," that shows how to create a custom UI Ribbon using only Ribbon extensibility markup XML and macros.
I know what you're thinking. "Macros are for weenies." But it turns out that the VBA code won't run due to the new security model unless the user has certain settings set. However, macros can be deemed "safe," so that an application can have a guaranteed minimum functionality, even if the VBA code can't run. Microsoft put extra effort into the macros for Access 2007, so that developers can write as little code as possible (or no code) and still have a reasonably functional database application.
