Hello

from programmers help:

' Set a reference to the user interface manager.
Dim oUIManager As UserInterfaceManager
Set oUIManager = oApp.UserInterfaceManager

' Get the ribbon associated with part documents
Dim oRibbon As Ribbon
Set oRibbon = oUIManager.Ribbons.Item("Part")

' Create a new tab
Dim oTab As RibbonTab
Set oTab = oRibbon.RibbonTabs.Add("My Tab", "invrMyTab", "CLSID of the AddIn", , , False)
  
' Create a new panel within the tab
  Dim oPanel As RibbonPanel
  Set oPanel = oTab.RibbonPanels.Add("My Panel", "invrMyPanel", "CLSID of the AddIn")
  
' Create a control within the panel
Call oPanel.CommandControls.AddButton(oButtonDefinition, True)

Adding a new tab is easy. I'm not sure what's the confusing point?!?
