Ribbon applications in c#

[smnbss]

Is it possible to write a ribbon application from scratch using c#?

here we can see how to build one using c++ (MFC office style)

Is it possible to do the same in c#??

Since it's possible to extend Word with c# it should be possible to create a
ribbon application in C#...

Or do I need to create an host in c++ and add the controls in c#?

thanks a lot

smnbss,

There isn't a managed wrapper for those controls, so you are going to
have to host .NET in your C++ app, or create managed wrappers for the
Ribbon.
