Default Query: Custom extention for toolbar (Repeat in case the first was lost)

Probaly not exactly the correct group, but since it deals with apps used in
98SE, thought I might give it a go.

Through a website, I found that I can create button and/or Menu shortcuts
to whatever application/website I want and have the Menu text appear in the
Tools section:

Button and Menu:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Extensions\{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7D3}]
"CLSID"="{1FBA04EE-3024-11d2-8F1F-0000F87ABD16}"
"Default Visible"="Yes"
"Icon"="C:\\Windows\\Icons\\Babelfish.ico"
"HotIcon"="C:\\Windows\\Icons\\Babelfish.ico"
"ButtonText"="Babel Fish Translation"
"MenuText"="Babel Fish Translation"
"MenuStatusBar"="Babel Fish: Translate text or a webpage. Powered by
Systran"
"Exec"="http://babelfish.altavista.com"


Menu Only:

REGEDIT4

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet
Explorer\Extensions\{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7D3}]
"CLSID"="{1FBA04EE-3024-11d2-8F1F-0000F87ABD16}"
"Default Visible"="Yes"
"MenuText"="Babel Fish Translation"
"MenuStatusBar"="Babel Fish: Translate text or a webpage. Powered by
Systran"
"Exec"="http://babelfish.altavista.com"


I can add additional such shortcuts via changing the last number of the
key, each new one gets placed on top of the list, I can handle that no
problem. Once I reach nine can I go farther? Would it be:

{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7D9}
{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7D0}
{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7DA}

or

{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7D9}
{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7DA}
etc...
{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7DF}
{47055D63-DFCD-11d3-8406-00500445A7E0}

What I would like is to be able to have a structured Tool list with sub
menus, I would also like to be able to have the same/similar tools listed
in the Go section of My Documents and/or in the Tools section of Windows
Explorer. Is that possible?

I know that I can add links if I edit the folder options, but was looking
more for the toolbar menu .

Was this the site?
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...als/button.asp

If you follow the instructions there then the GUID is created for you, and
the order of items is determined by how you add the items to the toolbar.

If you make your own GUIDs (which is not recommended) the correct sequential
numbering is
....45A7D3
....45A7D4
.....
....45A7D9
....45A7DA
....45A7DB
.....
....45A7DF
....45A7E0
....45A7E1
