@johnclark851 You know it! LOL I figure why not let the cats have a debut :-) Thank you for the compliment on the format. Always open to suggestions to make it easier for all.
Excellent video thank you. I have never tackled the ribbon myself, always avoided it because it just looked a very complicated process. But now with your instructions, I feel confident I can easily create my own ribbon!
@NiftyAccessMicrosoft That comment alone makes all the hard work creating the video worth it! The thing to watch out for is how sensitive the XML code is. Recommend using Notepad++ for editing. Feel free to reply on here if you run into any issues. Happy coding!
@@accessisnotdead Honestly, with your short videos, it's like i have done the practice and i already create 2 tabs with several menus inside, i learned the basic, and now i can do whatever i want, thanks
Thank you very much for that video! It was a great start and motivation to learn more about how to customize that ribbon. Nice and detailed enough to get started for own projects 👍 thanks!! Now only custom „context menu“ are missing 😅 maybe i will also give it a try again… 😉

Hi @44louix The below link from Microsoft will give you a breakdown of all the different types of XML tags you can use for different menu options. A Template would only be useful if it was for a specific type of application that had common commands, but you are really going to want to customize the menu to what makes sense for your application. learn.microsoft.com/en-us/openspecs/office_standards/ms-customui/700e4451-8706-40c5-8d7b-896e4ae21b69
Hi. No need to buy anything or subscribe. All the code included in the comments and shown in the video will get you a working custom Ribbon in Access. The Etsy link is incase you do not want to go thru the RUclips tutorial. A $2 shortcut for you but not necessary. I'll be sure to be more clear in future videos. Thank you for the feedback!
@joshua4915 I would love to hear your opinion on what made you think the video was a promo. Your opinion matters and helps us to create more helpful videos.
Like Nifty, the ribbon was always a "black box" for me. I like your format and you succinct way of explaining things - not bad for a Crazy Cat Lady!

Nice presentation....awesome!
If you have any questions or get stuck on anything let me know. It can take some practice editing the Ribbon.

what could be reason ms access form wizard cannot find the table (USysRibbonImages) ?
Hi @md.omerkhayyam3343 If your options to hide System tables is on then USysRibbonImages will be hidden.
