    Resolved Shell SendTo - Extended Items?

    Is it possible to expand the items in the send to menu?

    I have a directory d:\anime and it has about 15 subfolders.. so i was wondering if it was possible to expand it like the control panel.

    There is a folder called SendTo under Documents and Settings for each user. Any shortcut in there will appear to send items to.

    Re: Shell SendTo - Extended Items?

    yes... i already know how to do that .

    What i want is the sub folders of the folder called Anime.

    eg. i want Anime to expand to another context menu listing Animes folder contents.

    Say Anime has the folders {Naruto, FMA, Bleach} 'these are only a few

    I want to be able to right click on a file > click send to > click Anime > click Naruto and the file is sent there

    My Anime Directory is in D:\Anime so the file would be sent to D:\Anime\Naruto.

    there are 15 different folders within anime (and im contantly adding more)

    It would also be nice for my music and programming directories.

    Create a new folder in the SendTo folder, and place your shortcuts in there.

    I use Microsoft Visual Basic 2005. (Therefore, most code samples I provide will be based around the .NET Framework v2.0, unless otherwise specified)

    Re: Shell SendTo - Extended Items?

    Meh.... i didnt want to have to write a app to do this but at least it would make it easier to customize.

    I wanted to have the SendTo Items recursive in the sense that if i added the folder Anime('D:\Anime') i could use the SendTo Menu to Select 'Anime' the then a sub folder of 'Anime' and then maybe even another folder underneath that.

    Now all i got to do get get around to writing the shell extension

    Anyway, Sorry for being so unclear...

    Using folders to categorize the shortcuts wouldnt be so bad but for my music collection(40 artists, 187 Albums) it would simiply be to much work to maintain.
