How can I add a menu item to Internet Explorer's right-click context menu?
I am trying to make a sort of form completer, but I want to access by right-
clicking in IE.

Any suggestions or help would be appreciated. Very Happy

Thanks.

THere is some kind of registry key for that, but I don't know which... Embarassed Maybe you can search for one of the items which now is in your context menu in regedit.exe? (Like 'Unzip to...') Smile

Thanks Serge. Very Happy I found a section in at MSDN about it, however it
doesn't seem to work very well to just run a program. But I think I know
how I can get around it by changing some more registry settings.

Thanks all for the help. I appreciate it. Very Happy

Thanks. However, still no go. I am trying the following:

registry write,CURUSER,Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\MenuExt\My Program,,C:\Myprogram\myprogram.exe

Hmmmm. What am I doing wrong? I know I am missing something (being registry challenged and such)... Wink
