Is there a control that can enable me to put a Windows Explorer widget inside an Excel Userform?
Or at least show objects/icons from a path.
Thanks!

I have Windows 8.1, MSWord 365, Visual Basic for Application 7.1 and would like to use RTF Textbox control on a Userform. This control can not be seen in Controls windows nor can be found within Available Controls in Additional Controls windows. How can I use it?
I have written 2 Macros in PowerPoint and added the Macros to a customized ribbon named 'My Ribbon' to make those macros available at a click of a button. The only problem is the Ribbon disappears when someone else opens the PowerPoint on a different computer. The macros stay with the file but the customized ribbons do not and we have to create another customized ribbon, and place both macros to the ribbon every time we share the file across our drive.(Which is quite annoying)
I want to permanently append the customized ribbon to the PowerPoint so that anyone who opens the PowerPoint will be able to see the personalized ribbon with both Macros already on their version of PowerPoint.
VBA macros are not designed for distributing the code on multiple PCs. If you need to get a solution which can be installed on other PCs you need to develop an add-in. That's exactly they were invented for. Moreover, you can create an installer for the add-in. It will be installed as other applications on your PC. See Walkthrough: Creating Your First Application-Level Add-in for PowerPoint to get started.
If you choose to stay with VBA macros, you will have to edit the open xml document. See Customize the Word Ribbon User Interface for more information. The process is common for almost all Office applications (Outlook does't support that).
You could use such a program like Ribbon Editor to customize the Ribbon for your pptm file only. (No need for an AddIn it you want it deployed only with the file)
We have a Developed a VSTO Add-In (Excel Add-In) Application with couple of Buttons in the Ribbon.
On Starting/launching the Application, It launches excel Instance. On the Button Click We are instantiating the WPF window having some Input Textboxes for the user to Enter the Values.
The Issue here is When we try to type in the Textboxes, It types it in the Excel window.
The Wpf window runs under the same process of the Add-In which is (Excel Process).
could you please suggest a solution foe this issue.
THANKS

I'd suggest running a Windows form instead. Or you can try to place your WPF controls on the Windows form. Does it work as expected?
I have added a solution module having a custom folder in MS outlook 2010. I need to open a windows form on folder click event. The form should display in main central region of outlook window (I think it is called an inspector).
How can I achieve this?
You can monitor the Explorer.FolderSwitch event and display your form if the desired folder is current.
Within Powerpoint 2010 I have customised a tab on ribbon with both standard and custom macro buttons using 'customize the ribbon'.
In an attempt to share this ribbon with friends I have exported the ribbon as an .exportedUI file and saved the presentation as a macro enabled template.
When I open up any file called (Presentation1) the buttons work fine as the name for the macros are 'Presentation1'!macro#. If I then save as or open another blank (Presentation 2) the buttons produce the error:
"The macro could not be found or has been disabled because of your security settings"
The problem appears to be with the name of the macro that is associated with the button.
Is it possible to mix custom with standard buttons on an exportable ribbon? Or will I have to create an add-in that produces a new tab then replicate the standard buttons required? I know it is possible to do this in Excel and in Word but in Powerpoint it appears not to be?
