How do I add my own right mouse click menu item to Windows 9x system?? For example, WinZip adds several functions to the popup menu such as "Add to Zip...".

How do I add my own text string and then bind it to a C++ program?

I would like my command to work on selected folders and/or files.

Thanks.

This is not an exact answer but it may give you a place to start. If you look in your regestry you'll see that WinZip adds a regestry entry to *.shellex.ContextMenuHandlers.WinZip

Good Luck

this is a worked example in david.j.kruglenski's book on vc++(microsoft press).
