Andrei,

I couldn't reply to my last post for some reason, so sorry for starting a new topic.

I have tried everything to get two addins sharing one ribbon tab. I have set the addin.namespace property, both to "adxManSys" and the ID and MSOid of each ribbon tab control to match in both. I still get two tabs, with the same caption.

I have read the article you suggested too.

I am doing this with Add-In Express 2010 in VB.Net 2008 and getting really, really frustrated - we're hoping to launch a suite of add-ins that work with our application, soon.

Please help. :(

Neil.

ps: I seem to type Addins with a 'g' half the time - sorry.

Hi ManSys,

Please see http://www.add-in-express.com/docs/net-office-ribbon-tips.php.

Tested on Add-inExpress 2010 + Vista 32 + Outlook 2010. It's worked OK.
Regards,

I am officially a bad reader! I had called the Ribbon Tabs something slightly different, corrected this and it all works.

Sorry to waste your time :-(

Neil.
