Office Ribbon

Expanding/collapsing the Ribbon

The Ribbon can be expanded or collapsed by double clicking on a Menu/Tab name in the ribbon.
With VBA, it is possible like so:
application.commandBars.executeMso "HideRibbon"
application.commandBars.executeMso "MinimizeRibbon"
Note: in spite the names HideRibbon and MinimizeRibbon, these command in fact toggles between hidden and shown ribbons and/or menues.
