Office 2007 controls

Just instaled the new Office 2007, and the new layout is really cool. Will
there be any upgrades to VS 2005 Pro that will include new controls whith a
smilar look and feel as that you get in Office 2007?

I don't think so, which means that Microsoft didn't announce any public
plans. However, other control manufacturers will likely ship similar
controls.

Andy,
In addition to the other comments.

Historically: Office ships with new controls, subsequent versions of the OS
inherits the controls, subsequent versions of the developers tools support
the OS controls.

In other words Office 2007 & Vista are shipping "now"; I would expect
Vista+1 or Vista+2 to gain the controls in Office 2007; The VS that ships
about when Vista+2 ships may gain said controls.

If you are looking in particular for the RibbonControl, try here:

Gene,
Thanks for the link, I've seen a couple of the other Ribbon clones; I had
not seen this one yet. From their web site, this one looks truer to the
Office Ribbon.
