How to create a Menu Strip Application

We need an application that will dock itself to the top of Window's Desktop.
I'm thinking of something like Microsoft Office's Quick Launch, only bigger
(the size of Microsoft's Explorer Bar in the OpenFile/SaveAs Dialog Box). Our
company will place buttons to all of its applications on this for Internal
use only.

Opt 1) Should I start with a Main Form and try to dock it to the top of the
Desktop?

Opt 2) Should I start with a console application, create a panel or toolbar
with the Desktop as the parent, then dock that to the top of the Desktop?

Of course, I'm not sure how to do either of these options.

We are limited to Visual Studio 2005 Professional, and we'd like to stick to
VB/C# because most of our developers are not so good with C++.

Alternately, we could start with pre-made, blank, dockable toolbar that we
could download, and fill it with our data. ...if anyone knows where I could
find something like that.
