	Hi Blockwood, I guess you mean a seperator. You can create that by the BeginGroup option. Example: Set mCtr = .Add(xtpControlButton, ID_PRINT, "Print") mCtr.BeginGroup = True Regards, Bjarne

	The BeginGroup property needs to be set, see code below: Dim ToolBar As CommandBar Set ToolBar = CommandBars.Add("Standard", xtpBarTop) With ToolBar.Controls .Add xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_NEW, "&New" .Add xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_OPEN, "&Open" Set Control = .Add( xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_SAVE, "&Save") Control.BeginGroup = True Set Control = .Add(xtpControlButton, ID_FILE_PRINT, "&Print") Control.BeginGroup = True Set Control = .Add(xtpControlButton, ID_HELP_ABOUT, "&About") Control.BeginGroup = True End With

	Just to follow up on Bjarne's post, setting 'BeginGroup' to True will create a vertical spacer BEFORE the control that has this property. In menu's, it appears above the control. In toolbars, it appears to the left of the control.

	Hi Blockwood, There is no such things as dumb questions. Personally I have asked lots of them, and learned a lot. Bjarne
