Where can I find the context menu in the registry

[patgenn123]

Hello!  I am looking to find where in the registry is the context menu?  I am looking to add additional commands there to give me greater flexibility.

Any help would be appreciated.

I may be wrong but I don't think its in the registry I believe its embedded into the program.

Thanks, but Abacus(Actpresentation) and CRM-Service add information to the context menu.  I see it on my screen right now when I right click on the screen.

Can I get into the context menu?  Others can.  Why can't I?  It's not sacrosanct.

I wrote this code in a free add-on that extended the Group TreeView menu to include "Exapnd All" "Collapse All"

I lifted the code directly, hope this helps
