Default Add menu item and sub items to right click in explorer

I can add items to the right click menu by adding keys to the */Shell
registery but I can't and a item then submenu items.
Example:
Open
Test
Test1
Test2
Print
I can get Test in the menu but not the sub items.

Send To Add Subfolders (Flyouts)

From David Candy.

quote
To create sub menus on the Send To menu type Sendto in the Start - Run
dialog box. Click a blank spot and choose New then Folder. Rename the
folder to the name you want on the Send To menu. Drag your shortcuts you
want on the menu into this folder.
quote

See flyouts1.JPG and flyouts2.JPG in...
C:\Documents and Settings\Wesley P. Vogel\My Documents\COMPUTER
DOCUMENTS\SendTo Stuff

I just did this...
Start | Run | Type: sendto | Click OK |
Created New Folder in the right hand pane.
Opened New Folder and created New Folder.
Opened that New Folder and created New Folder.
Added a shortcut to WordPad in that folder.

So I ended up with...
SendTo\New Folder\New Folder\New Folder\WordPad

Added a shortcut to NotePad also.

So I ended up with...
SendTo\New Folder\New Folder\New Folder\WordPad & NotePad

See attached picture flyouts1.JPG.

I then added a bunch of other stuff.

See attached picture flyouts2.JPG.

I'll remove all of that. I just did it to see if it would work.

Hope this helps. Let us know.
