Overview wanted

   I am playing about with the Samples, and using RibbonBar, DckingPanes and SkinFramework.  It all works OK, but I don't know what I am doing.

I can see samples for the RibbonBar examples which load Office2007Blue.dll, etc.  And DockingPane.VisualTheme = ThemeOffice2007. And SkinFramework.LoadSkin "Office2007.cjstyles".

etc.

How do these all relate?  Does the SkinFramework override the other settings? Do I need to use all of these?  

I'd very grateful for a paragraph giving an overview of these things.

(It is fun doing things by trial and error, but it does take a lot of time).

	Here's what I have got at the moment to try and make sense of the skins and themes etc, Any comments? Select Case UserSelectedLook case "Office2007 Aqua" SkinFramework.LoadSkin "Office2007.cjstyles", "NormalAqua.ini" CommandBarsGlobalSettings.Office2007Images = "Office2007Aqua.dll" DockingPaneMain.VisualTheme = ThemeOffice case "VistaSilver" SkinFramework.LoadSkin "Vista.cjstyles", "NormalSilver.ini" CommandBarsGlobalSettings.Office2007Images = "Office2007Silver.dll" DockingPaneMain.VisualTheme = ThemeVisio case "LunaBlue" SkinFramework.LoadSkin "WinXp.Luna.cjstyles", "NormalBlue.ini" CommandBarsGlobalSettings.Office2007Images = "Office2007Blue.dll" DockingPaneMain.VisualTheme = ThemeWord2007 Is this the best way to do this? Has anyone got a better system?
