Imports Infragistics.Win.UltraWinToolbars

Private Sub button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles button1.Click
	' Set the merge orders on the ribbon tabs in the child and parent 
	' managers.  This will cause the first tab of the child manager
	' to be placed before the first tab on the parent manager when
	' the managers are merged.
	Me.parentToolbarsManager.Ribbon.Tabs.Item(0).MergeOrder = 2
	Me.childToolbarsManager.Ribbon.Tabs.Item(0).MergeOrder = 1

	Me.parentToolbarsManager.Ribbon.Tabs.Item(1).MergeOrder = 3

	' Set the merge orders on the ribbon groups of two tabs which will be
	' merged together.  This will cause the child group in the merged tab
	' to be placed before the parent group in the merged tab when the managers
	' are merged.
	Me.parentToolbarsManager.Ribbon.Tabs.Item(1).Groups.Item(0).MergeOrder = 2
	Me.childToolbarsManager.Ribbon.Tabs.Item(1).Groups.Item(0).MergeOrder = 1

	' Merge the child manager into the parent manager.
	Me.parentToolbarsManager.ActiveMdiChildManager = Me.childToolbarsManager
End Sub

private void button1_Click( object sender, EventArgs e )

	// Set the merge orders on the ribbon tabs in the child and parent 
	// managers.  This will cause the first tab of the child manager
