I was reading some older posts and came across this. Perhaps this will solve your problem?
"The Carlson 2010 program does not have Ribbon menu elements in its default state. This is due to the fact that Carlson can be installed on any full version of AutoCAD from 2010 down to 2000 as well as IntelliCAD. The different CAD engines all have different menu setups.
You will need to create a new Workspace including all desired menu options from your program configuration. Open the CUI and right click on 'Workspace' - 'New Workspace' - copy the desired contents (Menus,
Toolbars, Ribbons,...) from your CUI on the left to the new Workspace on the right. Once the new Workspace is created, turn on the Workspace toolbar and set your Workspace current. Then turn on the Ribbon menu.
You can disable the Ribbon menu option by typing 'Ribbonclose' "
