How To Customize Context Menu in VS .NET You already know that you can customize main menu and toolbars and you can place commands or macros on them. Unfortunately you cannot customize context (shortcut, right-click) menu this way in VS .NET 2002 and 2003. You simply cannot invoke context menu in Customize mode. You can do it easily in VS 2005.
For VS 2002/2003 we must use small trick. We create exact copy of context menu in VS main menu, right after the Help menu. This "mirror" menu is fully customizable. After we make changes to this copy, we copy them back to the context menu. |

Context Menus
Context menus are menus that appear when an item is right-clicked. In any windows application when you
right-click your mouse you get a menu which might display some shortcuts from the Edit Menu, for example, cut, copy, paste, paste special and so on. All these menu items which are available when you right-click are called Context Menus. In Visual Basic we create context menus with the ContextMenu component. The ContextMenu component is edited exactly the same way the MainMenu component is edited. The ContextMenu appears at the top of the form and you can add menu items by typing them. To associate a ContextMenu with a particular form or control we need to set the ContextMenu property of that form or control to the appropriate menu. |
