Hi,

I need to capture menu clicks in all the office application ie. Edit->Undo, Help etc.

Does anyone have any ideas.

I think you need to subclass.

You're talking about something that doesn't belong to your thread and unfortunately VB cannot subbclass something from other threads. You will have to use C/C++ for that.

Do you have any idea where I can get some examples of C/C++ code to do this? Can I write a component for my COM AddIn or do I have to write another AddIn in C?

You can use a c++ dll that does the subclassing for you in your vb program. You can get some examples on that here: www.vbaccelerator.com.
