Hi there,

After using the wizard to create a new AddIn under VS 2005, which now
appears on the Tools menu as "View DB", how can I now:

1) Add a submenu item to the "View DB" item
2) Add the standard ?symbol to the end of the "View DB" row to indicate that
a submenu is in fact present (assuming it isn't automatically added for me
once the submenu item itself is added).

Thanks for the help.

Sorry, the symbol I'm referring to is the (right-pointing) triangle that
appears on the end of any row whenever that row is a parent menu (i.e., it
indicates that a submenu follows)

Thanks. I've been stuck in menu "hell" for the past couple of days (not one
of MSFT's better designs but the lack of adequate documentation is the real
problem).
