微软的Office系列办公套件从Office 2007开始首次引入了Ribbon导航菜单模式，其将一系列相关的功能集成在一个个Ribbon中，便于集中管理、操作。这种Ribbon是高度可定制的，用户可以将自己常用的功能进行单独设置，提高工作效率。但是由于Office 2003时代用户的操作习惯已经养成，结果到了Office 2007很多菜单、按钮都找不到了，着实有些尴尬。经过一段时间的适应，相信大多数用户已经习惯Ribbon式的界面了。到了Office 2010时代，微软已经将所有Office产品加上了Ribbon界面：
本系列所有示例代码均在 Visual Studio 2010 Ultimate RTM + Office 2010 Professional Plus RTM x64 中测试通过

Word 2010
Excel 2010
PowerPoint 2010
Publisher 2010
Project 2010
Visio 2010
Access 2010
SharePoint Workspace 2010(原Groove)
也有很多软件也推出了Ribbon界面，著名的如Autodesk系列、WinZip、Xencoder等：
作为开发人员我们就想如何才能开发这种Ribbon界面。我查找了一些资料，整理如下，如果你有更好的方案，欢迎补充。
一、Windows Ribbon Framework
Developer Audience
The Windows Ribbon framework is designed for use by C/C++ developers and UI designers.
Recommended proficiencies:
- COM programming
- Windows API programming
- XML/XAML programming
Recommended foundational knowledge:
- UI programming concepts
- General UI concepts
Minimum Requirements
|
Minimum supported client |
Windows 7 Windows Vista with Service Pack 2 (SP2) and Platform |
|
Minimum supported server |
Windows Server 2008 R2 Windows Server 2008 with SP2 and Platform |
|
Windows Software Development Kit (SDK) |
7.0 |
|
Header and IDL files |
uiribbon.h, uiribbon.idl |
二、Office 2010 AddIns
Office PIA中提供了接口、类来对Ribbon进行操作，可以参见我之前的一篇博文：VSTO学习笔记(三) 开发Office
2010 64位COM加载项
主要利用CommandBar类进行相关操作。利用Office PIA操作Ribbon很不直观，需要控制很多细节，但是非常灵活，可以最大程度的自定义Ribbon。
三、OpenXML SDK 2.0
如果你还没有安装OpenXML SDK 2.0，可以在这里下载。
Office 2007时代首次推出了OpenXML格式，并且通过了ISO国际标准。OpenXML格式有诸多好处，微软也发布了OpenXML SDK来对Office 2007、Office 2010的文档进行操作，提供了除Office PIA之外的另一种选择。采用OpenXML格式的Office文档实际上就是一个标准ZIP压缩包，可以将一个Office文档的扩展名修改为.zip并解压缩来查看其中的内容。
用户自定的Ribbon在OpenXML中保存在一个名为customUI.xml的XML文件中，如图，我打开了一个包含有加载宏的Word 2010文档，其中有一个自定义Ribbon，Office Developer Resources：
将这个文档的扩展名修改为.zip：
可以看到其文档结构，在customUI文件夹下保存了用户自定义Ribbon的信息：
打开customUI文件：
可以看到用户自定义Ribbon的具体描述，customUI.xml需要遵循Office 2010的XML架构规范，可以在这里下载。Office
2007的XML架构规范可以在这里下载。
下载下来解压缩后，是一个xsd文件，查找关于Ribbon的部分：
阅读这个xsd文件需要有一定的XML Schema基础，我们只需要大概了解即可，主要为了后面添加自定义的customUI文件。OpenXML SDK 2.0对此提供了支持，可以对Ribbon进行控制：
下面我们给一个Word 2010的文档添加一个自定义Ribbon。
首先准备customUI.xml文件，写入如下内容：
<customUI xmlns='http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui'>

使用OpenXML SDK 2.0添加此Ribbon：
SDK 2.0添加此Ribbon：
运行后可以看到Word中出现了一个自定义Ribbon：
这个自定义Ribbon我取自MSDN上的一篇博客，原文地址。下面的这个例子就来自这篇博客，我对其进行了少许修改。
注：作者写此Demo时使用的OpenXML SDK版本较老，导致在OpenXML SDK 2.0下编译失败，经查是一个类的继承关系做了更改，我已经做了修正。
Demo2：将一个文档中的Ribbon复制到另一个文档中。
运行结果：
Alt + F11 打开VBA 7.0的编辑器，可以看到Ribbon中的事件处理函数：
函数的功能很简单，是当点击Ribbon中的按钮时跳转到指定网站，相当于一个浏览器收藏夹的作用。
四、VSTO 4.0 Ribbon Controls
安装Visual Studio 2010的Office开发工具后，就可以使用VSTO 4.0来方便的进行Office开发了。
如图我建立了一个Excel 2010 Workbook项目，Add Item时有一个可视化Ribbon的选项：
添加之后就可以像开发Windows Form一样设计Ribbon，同时工具箱中叶出现了Office Ribbon Controls：
如上图所示，我添加了一个Tab，分了4个组，每个组中添加了图标按钮，Excel中添加了一个Web Browser控件，当点击相应按钮时Web Browser跳转到各自项目官方网站：
运行结果：
Ribbon支持右键导出为XML，即上文提到的customUI.xml：
点击导出为XML后会自动生成两个文件：
XML文件的内容格式符合Office 2010 XML架构规范：
五、第三方商业组件
现在有很多的控件、组件开发公司设计的软件也相当好用，如果你的项目有充足的预算，可以考虑使用这些商业组件。
5.1、add-in-express
这是一家专门做插件的公司，官方主页：http://www.add-in-express.com
其产品线包括：
Add-in Express 2010
for Microsoft Office and .net
Add-in Express
2010 for Microsoft Office and CodeGear VCL
Add-in
Express 2010 for Internet Explorer and Microsoft .net
Security Manager
2010 for Microsoft Outlook
add-in-express公司对Office的插件开发做了很好的封装，大大简化了开发Office插件的过程，如果你感兴趣，可以进行试用。
5.2、devcomponents
这家公司的业务范围稍微大了一些，官方主页：http://www.devcomponents.com/
其主要为Windows Forms、WPF、Silverlight设计Ribbon界面，产品线包括：
小结
本次介绍了5种Office 2010 Ribbon的开发方法，适合不同的人群与需求。如果你的C++水平很高，且对Windows API很熟悉，那么我建议你使用微软的Windows Ribbon Framework，有官方支持，且效率很高。
我个人更倾向于使用VSTO 4.0 + OpenXML SDK 2.0的方式，这样可以使用更熟悉的技术来开发，便于系统后续升级、维护。Office AddIn的方式处理起来非常复杂，需要进行很多控制，如果你需要非常高的*度，建议采用此方法。至于最后一种商业组件，那属于有钱人了 ：） 开个玩笑。采用哪种方案，具体应取决于业务需求，合适的才是最好的。如果你有其他更好的方案，欢迎讨论。
