'Declaration
<ToolboxBitmapAttribute(GetType(RibbonSplitButton), "RibbonSplitButton.bmp")> _
Public NotInheritable Class RibbonSplitButton _
    Inherits RibbonControl
'Usage
Dim instance As RibbonSplitButton

Remarks

A RibbonSplitButton control combines a button or a toggle button and a drop-down menu. To choose between the button and toggle button, use the ButtonType property.

Unlike the RibbonMenu control, the RibbonSplitButton control does not have the Dynamic property, so contents of the Items collection cannot be changed at run time.
