In an addin the 'form' is the endusers work, maybe a source module. What I want to do is a context menu. However, it's in a VS.NET addin. I know how to add menu items to the regular menus... But not to the context menu.

>Hi Joe,
>
>Are you referring to creating Context Menus? If so, then you would do the following:
>
>1. Drag a ContextMenu onto your form from the toolbox.
>2. Right-Click on the ContextMenu and choose Edit Menu.
>3. Create the Menu Bars that you want displayed.
>4. For each Menu Bar, double-click to create the Handler for the Click event.
>5. Write the code for each Menu Bar. You can reference the controls on the form to manipulate them as needed. The event handler is at the form level so you can start off as Me.MyControl.
>6. For each control on the form that you want to use this Context Menu, set the ContextMenu property to the ContextEditor control. You can set this in code or in the Properties Window.

>>Two questions one post. :)
>>When creating an
addin using VB.NET:
>> - How do you add a right click menu item?
>> - How do you reference the selected text?
