I'm not certain if this can be done so I'm wondering if anyone has been able to do this. I want to use the Highlight (No Highlight) toolbar menu item in my application. It's found in MS Word, under the Formatting toolbar. When selected it allows the user to select one of several color options. I'd like to use this toolbar item or even better, replicate it in my app. Can anyone suggest a means to accomplish this?


I'm using VS2005 and building a Windows App.
 
I've ended up just creating toolbar buttons and set the background color to display it visually. Not the solution I'd have liked but will work for now.

Again, if anyone can come up with a better solution or knows how to incorporate an existing toolbar item into another app I'd like to hear from you with your comments.
