	I'm not sure I understand your question..."What are the method to realize the menu for my application?". Maybe you can take a look at the Customizable and Designer samples to see example using the xcb file.

	Ok, my English is not good. I try to explicate better In Customizable and Designer samples the menus and toolbar are loaded from visio.xcb file. With this tecnique, when I realize the distributable component or executable I must include in the package also the xcb files. This means that the menu are not encapsuleted in the component or executable. The other solution is to code the instruction to build menu and toolbar without any graphic and intercative help like command bar designer There is a similar solution? Actually I use the Activebar control that has a designer attached to the control. I'm estimating the trial version of codejock component's for a upgrade to Office2003-like interface

	If you do not want to include the .xcb file with your application you will need to write your command bars via code. I would suggest going throught the turorials for each sample program. After going through the tutorials you shouldn't have any trouble coding your application. If you get stuck, we are more than happy to help you out here in the forum.

	There is a new XML feature in version 9.60. You can create your Command Bar in the Designer Studio and export this as an XML file. You can add all of the XML code into a single string and have this hard coded into your application. You can then use the LoadStateFromXMLString method to load the Command Bars. See the help documentation for more details.
