Display Custom Dockable window in Microsoft Excel

Can we create our own Dockable windows (having our own controls) in excel
(Windows 2003) like Getting started, The dockable window that appears when
we click on File -> New.

Please tell me the whether it is possible or not. If so what are the classes
that I need to use and what are the problems that may face if I use the same
code on old versions of excel.

Thanks in advance.

Yes, this is possible with the Visual Studio 2005 Tools for Office. What you
are searching for is called ActionPane.

Hello, All, I'm looking for information on how to create dockable forms. Basically, I'm writing a .NET application and instead of using C# (I want to refresh my C++ skills) I'm going to use C++. It would be greatly appreciated if anyone can direct me to online resources or even a good book that gives an overview on how to create dockable forms.

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could point me to info on the best way to create a dockable window. I have seen plenty of posts about dockable controls that run within windows but I want the actual main window to dock, probably to the taskbar. I'd like it smart enough to adjust position if the taskbar height is increased or decerased.

I've been clicking around Access 2007 Beta 2 and can't see the custom menu bar designer. Is it in the beta? Maybe I'm blind. The question that comes to mind is: Will custom menu bars be the same height as they were in previous versions or will they be the "ribbon" style that takes up a huge portion of the screen? Also when I use Access 2007 to open an Access 2003 database that has custom menu bars they display as they did in Access...
