If you content yourself with Office 2007 then have a look at CMFCRibbonBar Class[^].

Pls why did u use d phrase "Content urself". If there is somethg better kindly introduce me to(tell me about ) it.

Because you asked specifically for Office 2010, I don't know if the CMFCRibbonBar does fit your needs. On the other hand, no, I don't know anything more suitable.
Possibly you could search for a third-party library implementing the Ribbon.
