Hello Peter Miller,

Thank you for contacting us. Yes, you can use it in your application provided that you follow the redistribution guidelines described below:

In order to redistribute our controls, you must comply with the redistribution guidelines in our EULA. You have to make sure that the dll files are protected and locked, so that your clients don’t have access to them. If your clients are going to update your project via using our controls at Design Time, this is considered as violation of our License Agreement and they will have to purchase the appropriate number of licenses for our controls.
 
Also, please note that the source code of our controls cannot be distributed, disclosed or otherwise made available to any third party.

Thank you very much.
I've got another question:
What about the formborder and the windowstyle:
There is formborderstyle =none, but I want to have a possibility to resize the window. I saw, there is RibbonForm. Is it inclusive in the Microsoft-download? When not, what should I do?
Thanks,
Peter

Hi Peter,

Thanks for writing back. RadRibbonForm is part of the whole Telerik RadControls for WinForms suite. You can find this component in the Trial version of our components and see how it can be integrated into your project, but you need to purchase a license to use it in your applications. Do not hesitate to write back if you need further assistance or have more questions.

Regards,
Deyan
