Hello Omar,

The Office Ribbon API doesn't let you customize a built-in group. Consider two options:
- create a custom group and place it after the Names group.
- replace the Names group with a custom group showing all the built-in buttons plus your custom button.

We give an example of using the second approach (it is an advanced one) at https://www.add-in-express.com/creating-addins-blog/2013/06/21/customizing-builtin-office-ribbon-groups/.

If you use Office Ribbons for the first time, I recommend that you start with checking sections https://www.add-in-express.com/docs/net-ribbon-tips.php and https://www.add-in-express.com/docs/net-ribbon-components.php.
