Change Windows Forms window style

Question

Change Windows Forms window style

How do I change the style of my window to a RibbonForm. Being that in a matter of Colors is already quiet. See image:

The application window looked like this!

And now how do I use the CreateParams method to change the title and center it and create a glow effect on a Label?

Use a DLL System.Windows.Forms.Ribbon35.dll

And at startup:

private void InitializeComponent()
{
    ribbon1 = new System.Windows.Forms.Ribbon();
    this.components = new System.ComponentModel.Container();
    this.AutoScaleMode = System.Windows.Forms.AutoScaleMode.Font;
    this.Text = "Form1";
    this.Controls.Add(ribbon1);
}
private System.Windows.Forms.Ribbon ribbon1;
