I just add another set of code within the Workbook_Open Sub.

With Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls.Add(tempo rary:=True)
.Caption = "Clear Formats"
.OnAction = "MyMacros.xla" & "!Change References"
End With

I have added two groups of three items each to the bottom of my r-click menu
in this manner.

I have had no success trying to add more than one item within the With/End
With lines, but VBA is not my strong suit.

It's more like my birthday suit, which is kinda wrinkly<g

There is most likely a way. Others will jump in if you hang around.

I think Ron's code with the Control ID is easier to use for exact placement.

Let's watch this thread so's we both can learn.

Gord, what if I want to add more than one button? Do I include the code
within the With..........End With Statement or do I write another one? Also,
what is the difference between a Control ID and .OnAction language. How do I
position the control in a certain spot on the menu? TIA

Not Ron, but sample code. I add my items when the workbook opens.

Sub Workbook_Open()

With Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls.Add(tempo rary:=True)
.BeginGroup = True
.Caption = "Clear Formats"
.OnAction = "MyMacros.xla" & "!ClearFormatting"
End With

End Sub

Note: if going this route you should delete the items in a
workbook_beforeclose or in the workbook_open othewrwise you will get

multiple
instances.

Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls("Clear Formats").Delete

Look for the ID numbers on this page
http://www.rondebruin.com/menuid.htm

This example will add the Paste Special button to the Cell menu after

the
Paste option.

Sub Add_Paste_Special_Button()
' This will add the Paste Special button to the cell menu
' after the Paste option
Dim Num As Long
Num = Application.CommandBars("Cell"). _
FindControl(ID:=755).Index
Application.CommandBars("cell").Controls. _
Add Type:=msoControlButton, ID:=370, befo=Num
End Sub

Sub Delete_Paste_Special_Button()
On Error Resume Next
Application.CommandBars("cell").FindControl(ID:=37 0).Delete
On Error GoTo 0
End Sub
