Using the RibbonBar, I've added a xtpControlCustom item the DateTimePicker and it shows up in the RibbonBar until I click it. Then it shows up as a button.

   Dim TabAdvanced As RibbonTab
   Set TabAdvanced = RibbonBar.InsertTab(7, "&Advanced")
   TabAdvanced.Id = ID_TAB_ADVANCED

   Set ViewGroup = TabAdvanced.Groups.AddGroup("&Advanced Controls", ID_GROUP_ADVANCED)
   ViewGroup.ControlsCentering = True

   Dim ItemCustom As XtremeCommandBars.CommandBarControlCustom

Set ItemCustom = ViewGroup.Add(xtpControlCustom, 777, "Time", False, False)
ItemCustom.Handle = TimePicker.hWnd

Before Click:

After Click:

Any ideas on how to keep this visible as a control and not a caption???

Thanks,

Tim

Hi,

Try to put control to PictureBox and attach PictureBox instead.

Oleg,

Once again, Thank you for your help. I had put the control in a picture box but had been referencing the control still. Upon refernce to the picture box, the control works in the ribbonBar.

Cheers!

Tim
