I'm in the process of learning how to create a custom ribbon bar for my DB. I figured out the basics and how to add and arrange existing buttons/commands and groups, but is there any way to add a button that runs a custom procedure? Well the custom procedure is very simple... just something that would open a specific form, or maybe something that runs VBA code. Basically I would like to transform the ribbon into a navigation pane for my DB. I would only have a handful of buttons and each one would open a separate form or report. My database design is mostly complete and I will have no more need for the standard "editing/designing" ribbon that is currently displayed. Is this something possible, or am I just stuck with the built in commands? Or even is there a built in command that does this and I just didn't see it?
Something like...
<customUI xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2006/01/customui">
<ribbon startFromScratch="true">
<tabs>
<tab id="dbCustomTab" label="A Custom Tab" visible="true">
<group id="dbCustomGroup" label="A Custom Group">
<control whatever goes here to open the form named "Customer Detail"...>
<control different code to open the form named "Order Detail"...>
<control Etc...>
</group>
</tab>
</tabs>
</ribbon>
</customUI>
