 How do I add a menu to the Add-Ins menu in Visual Basic 4.0

Does anyone know how to add a menu to the Add-Ins menu in VB4.
For example if I wanted to start an application by choosing it from
the VB  menu. If this can be done I also need to send the current file
name or project name to the application I will be starting.

My guess was that it should be somewhere in the registery, just like
VC++, but I couldn't find anything.

Thanks in advance.

The add-in menu is a menu that can be manipulated from special programs
called Add-ins. These programs can be made in VB itself and several
samples comes with VB. Try for example the program ALIGN and you will
probably figure out how to make your own add-in. Why don't you make a
program in which the user can specify the shortcuts he wants to add to the
add-in menu.

Good Luck!
