Note

To add a file-creation command to the New submenu, your application's files must have an associated file type. Include a ShellNew subkey under the file name. When the File menu's New command is selected, the Shell adds the file type to the New submenu. The command's display string is the descriptive string that is assigned to the program's ProgID.

Some menu items are not available in all versions of the Visual Basic Editor.
