Use of Coolbar and Toolbar controls to make a drop-down menu.

I need to do a friendly system to novice users, so I thought to make an interface easy to use, windows like. Well, the first thing a thought, is to do a structure of menus like the office, ok ? In fact, I've been testing with the coolbar and toolbar controls, and I reached to the tool bar with icons to get the options directly. But the seconds step, the menues, is still a problem to me, because I don't know how to do with the toolbar to make that type of menues. I've tested with the drop-down option within the tool bar, but it's not the right one. Can you help me ?

You could use standard menu created with menu editor from VB. Then you could show them at click event (like the righ popup menu in a text box, in example)
Do a search for popumenu statement at msdn to know how is done.
