I'm using Dynamics 365 Ribbon Workbench, but for few of my custom entities, the subgrid ribbon is empty.
Home and form ribbon can be changed, but not Subgrid. It just seem empty.
Anyone knows if I'm missing a configuration, either in Dynamics or Ribbon workbench?
We have exactly the same issue. In our RWB solution we had an entity that had a word "information" in it.
In one of the CRM forum posts [link below], it was said that Scott D. [RWB Developer] stated that SubGrid buttons in RWB solution do tend to disappear [or rather move into the either Home or Form grid] if the entity name contains word "information" in it.

I need to add the control like Microsoft excel having to change the Alignment. Attached the image the below to show what i need to know whether the Devexpress or Microsoft already having any control related to this ???
Please share your suggestion on this.
Thanks in Advance!!!
DevExpress have tons of controls and it seems you are talking about the MS Word text editing. If so, and you are a first-time user of DXRichEditControl, you can refer to the following tutorial that describes how to start with it and create all the UI buttons related to the DXRichEdit' actions:

In VSTO, I'm using VS 2012 with Excel 2013, and the Ribbon area I create with an addin looks so plain vanilla ( font is not able to be in bold etc..) It would be great to extend the look and feel and functionality of this along with tying in Event handlers for status updates.
Does anyone have any experience with extending VSTO, any samples, links that you found very useful ( yes I spent a lot of time on google already.)
The style of the Ribbon is controlled by Office. There is not anything you can do to change the format and styling of the fonts. The options you do have are size of the controls (e.g. buttons) & their icons.
It's also possible to use Office events to update the appearance of the ribbon.
If you have a specific scenario in mind, I'd be happy to help.
In the meantime, here are some helpful links:

How to pick a certain ribbon to show?
I have a Silverlight webresource inserted across the whole page and I want to show a ribbon of certain entity for it.
I suppose it's possible to do it by calling some javascript from XRM library? But I didn't find anything till now.
Thank you
You might be thinking about this backwards. You don't use JavaScript to pick ribbon to show. You set up ribbon anywhere it could show (using RibbonDiffXml) and then EnableRules and DisplayRules to control where it shows. Enable Rules allow you to specify web resources and use JavaScript to control whether the button is enabled. Unfortunately, CRM won't allow you to use JavaScript to control whether it displays (fingers crossed for future availability).
There are lots of examples out there. Here is one and two I just googled up. Be sure to reference the SDK for all the rules. Finally, if you want to short-cut learning some of the schema, you can use the Visual Ribbon Editor tool.
Note that you can either specify your ribbon customizations to a particular entity (in its RibbonDiffXml subnode) or in the global scope (exporting Ribbon Client Extensions) and use the {!EntityLogicalname} in the Id fields so CRM will generate a unique ID for the node, per entity, when it 'expands' the definition.
User should be able to drag and drop a word document onto a SharePoint 2010 web page and the content in the word document must be displayed on the page (including images, format etc.)
Any ideas on how to achieve this functionality?
You'll have to bake your own solution here. Luckily, you should be able to get started with TextGlow, which renders docx files in Silverlight. It has an intermediate level of formatting accounted for, but more can be programmed in. It's also SL2.0, so it will need to be updated and customized to meet your needs. See a demo at: http://www.textglow.com/
Then, wrap it in a SharePoint webpart and account for Drag/Drop, etc. There are a lot of good intro videos on Channel 9 about this and lots of other blogs elsewhere.
Q1. Which would be the best resource or tutorial to setup a simple WPF Organization Chart or Tree for an organization object (self referencing).I would like to have a button when clicked which would show an organization chart (hierarchical) tree of the various departments and sub-department.I'm looking for a base to start code + control.
Q2.Are there any report software like Crystal Report or WPF that could render something like that?

Another one from code project
Q2: Commercial printing control
You could take a look at Family.Show which has a very nice genealogical diagram. It's not an out of the box solution for making an organizational chart, but it's a good example how to do it. The source code is available on CodePlex.
A few years late but, Infragistics has an org chart WPF control as well.
