I wish to create a Microsoft Word add-in for use by others in my office which will give them access to a few macros that will increase productivity and possibly prevent the odd mistake from happening. The bit that I cannot work out is how I can get this add-in to automatically create a new tab and display it's various macros as buttons on this tab, all I can find is information on how to manually customise the ribbon interface or import an existing customisation. These methods will not work as I have co-workers who already have customised their ribbon interface and thus are unwilling to have my work overwrite theirs.
As far as I can tell there are no VBA methods that directly manipulate the ribbon interface so I'm slightly stumped. I do believe that this is possible as a co-worker showed me a document which seemed to do this. Could anyone give me a point in the right direction?
Many thanks,
Louis
