Does anyone have a list of the default idMso values for the default Ribbon
tabs? All of the examples I've seen reference "TabHome" and "TabCreate", but
I haven't been able to find the idMso names for the other tabs, ie. "External
Data", "Database Tools", and "Datasheet".
 
The means to find out the other iso id is a great question!!!

Here is how:

click on the office button..and then the customize option (I don't have 07
in front of me right now).

Note the list of ribbons and their options. If you hold your cursor "over"
the list, the iso id is the last value displayed in the "tool tips" help.

Note in the list all for buttons and also the actual ribbon "groups" are in
that list.

here is few I looked up recently:

<group idMso="GroupClipboard" />
<group idMso="GroupFindAccess" />
<group idMso="GroupSortAndFilter" />

If you include the above in your ribbons, then you have the clip board, the
find, and the sorting options....
 
Thank you Albert for taking time to so thoroughly answer this question.
There is more to this, however, since the solution you presented only works
for items that are enclosed within a "primary" ribbon, such as "Home". I was
finally able to locate the information I needed by downloading the file,
"2007OfficeControlIDsExcel2007.exe" from the "Office Fluent Ribbon Developer
Portal", at address: "http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/office/aa905530.aspx",
within the "Office Developer Center". You can find this file by clicking the
link "2007 Office System Document: Lists of Control IDs". There are several
other tools available there for developers who are interested in customizing
the "look and feel" of the ribbon in their applications. Thank you, again,
for your kind response, and have a great day!
 
If you look close, there is a combo box in he customize screen, and it has a
drop down...

You can *easily* find all of the controls, or groups in the access ribbon
this way...


office buttion->access options-> customive

Notice the combo box at the top...it has a complte listing of ALL buit in
bars..and you can get any id for any buttion that way....
