I posted this yesterday but don't see it in my Microsoft Outlook Newsreader,
so let me try again. (By the way--if anyone has any suggestions on making
sure the posts appear in the newsreader, I'm all ears. I've been struggling
with this for years).

I would like to add an item to, say the shortcut menu which appears when a
user right clicks the X Axis on a chart embedded in an Excel 2000 worksheet.
I can't find a listing of the names of the built in command bars. Can
someone suggest where I can find a list of built in command bars (the only
one I know is "Worksheet Menu Bar."

Try this code, put it in a module and run in on a new workbook:

Sub CmdBar_ToolBar()

Dim cmdbar, i As Integer, toolbar

Range("A1").Activate
i = 0
For Each cmdbar In Application.CommandBars
ActiveCell.Offset(i, 0).Value = cmdbar.Index
ActiveCell.Offset(i, 1).Value = cmdbar.Name
i = i + 1
Next cmdbar

i = 0
For Each toolbar In Application.Toolbars
ActiveCell.Offset(i, 2).Value = toolbar.Name
i = i + 1
Next toolbar
End Sub

It'll give you all the names of the different command-bars and tool-bars.
It's then up to you to find the correct one...

Good luck!
