Hi.

I am new to CommandBars (still evaluating) so I apologize if I am not wording this properly.

I have a CommandBar object that includes a Backstage View object and a Ribbon that displays tabs.

All is working great (so far) with the exception of the following:

I want to add an xtpControlButton to the Ribbon (or CommandBar?) that has no tab associated with it and just does something when you click on it and a Popup menu control.

So what I want is the following:

File (Backstage) ----Tab1 ---- Tab2--- -Tab3-----Command Button ---- Tab4 --- Command Popup

I am building the ribbon in the order above (using InsertTab for the Tabs) and RibbonBar.Controls.ADD for the 2 other items.

What is being displayed is:

File (Backstage) ---Command Button --- Command Popup ---- Tab1 ---Tab2---Tab3---Tab4

How can I get the order correct? I have tried using the "before" parameter but it has no impact.

Thanks in advance!
