It works!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A million thanks from a happy customer!!!
 
Since I started visiting these forums, I immediately saw how helpful Oleg's replies are. Thank you Oleg, you are great. You really know what you are talking about.
 
Let's give a big chear for Oleg and thank him for his hard work!
 
So, in order to have a standalone ActiveMenu item with no sub menus (in other words, a clickable menu in the ActiveMenu that has no children) you do this:
 
 
Dim ControlBuyNow As CommandBarControl
Set ControlBuyNow = CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls.Add(xtpControlButton, ID_BUY_NOW, "&Buy Now!")

Unfortunately I can't... If I do this, I get error 13, type mismatch:
 
Set ControlBuyNow = CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls.Add(xtpControlButton, ID_BUY_NOW, "&Buy Now!")
 
Is it by design that xtpControlButton cannot be added to ActiveMenuBar? Or is it a bug?

Thanks! What is an active tab? Is it a property? Is there some info about it in the help file?

To remind the user he has a demo version of the softare, I want to have a menu item "Buy Now" on the ActiveMenuBar without any childer buttons. Is this possible? When you click on it, no menus are displayed but the Execute event occurs...
 
I tried:
 
Set ControlBuyNow = CommandBars.ActiveMenuBar.Controls.Add(xtpControlButtonPopup, ID_BUY_NOW, "&Buy Now!")
 
 
but it shows an ugly empty menu item under itself.
 
Any ideas?
 
Eugene
