CommandBars Package
The CommandBars package includes the CommandBars framework. CommandBars implement the framework support that is required for creating Visual Studio.NET-type dockable / floatable menus and toolbars. A CommandBar, in itself, provides only the dockable host, and it is up to the user to implement the menu or toolbar that imparts the CommandBar its functionality. The Essential Tools Menus Package uses the CommandBars framework for creating the XP menus and toolbars.
