   The lack of documentation makes it difficult to figure out how to create a TOOLBAR with buttons that can show a CAPTION.
Is there any more technical information on these controls?

thank you!

	This code snippet is from the Office 2003 GUI Sample in the Common group of samples Dim ToolBar As CommandBar Dim Control As ICommandBarControl Set ToolBar = CommandBars.Add("Standard", xtpBarTop) With ToolBar.Controls Set Control = .Add(xtpControlButton, ID_NAVIGATE_BACK, "&Back") Control.Style = xtpButtonIconAndCaption End With For some reason, the 'Style' property doesn't show up in the VB IDE as a property of the ICommandBarControl, but it is in the documentation. Hope this helps.

	Thank you for pointing this out - This is a perfect example of how you can WAIST time on simple things when there is NO helpfull documentation. I'm still going to browse some more to see how I can move the caption to the buttom of the button... After I spent some time browsing the "documentation" this is what I found about this STYLE property, is this a joke? treme CommandBars ActiveX Control module Style PropertyDescription Gets/Sets the style of the control. Property type Read-write property Syntax (Visual Basic) Public Property Style() As XTPButtonStyle See Also CommandBarButton Object

	I don't think there is support for placing the caption below the button, but I could be wrong. Good luck.
