The use of CommandBars in some Microsoft Office applications has been superseded by the new Ribbon user interface. For more information, search help for the keyword "Ribbon."

Syntax

expression.OLEUsage

expression   A variable that represents a CommandBarButton object.

Return Value
MsoControlOLEUsage

Remarks

This property is intended to allow you to specify how individual add-in applications' command bar controls will be represented in one Office application when it is merged with another Office application. If both the client and server implement command bars, the command bar controls are embedded in the client control by control. Custom controls marked as client-only (or neither client nor server) are dropped from the server, and controls marked as server-only (or neither server nor client) are dropped from the client. The remaining controls are merged.

If one of the merging applications isn't an Office application, normal OLE menu merging is used, which is controlled by the OLEMenuGroup property.

Example

This example adds a new button to the command bar named "Tools", and sets its OLEUsage property.

Visual Basic for Applications
  Set myControl = CommandBars("Tools").Controls _
    .Add(Type:=msoControlButton,Temporary:=True)
myControl.OLEUsage = msoControlOLEUsageNeither
