In the following example, written in C#, the IRibbonExtensibility interface is specified in the class definition. The example then implements the interfaces's only method, GetCustomUI. The method creates an instance of a SteamReader object that reads in the customization markup in an external XML file.

public class Connect : Object, Extensibility.IDTExtensibility2, IRibbonExtensibility 
... 

public string GetCustomUI(string RibbonID) 
{
