Ive been at this all day long and cannot seem to get anything working. All I want to do is add a menu to the tools menu and a sub menu with a couple of items on it. Following another thread at CodeCommentshttp://www.codecomments.com/Visual_Studio_Extensibility/message477770.html
I ended up with this in my ctc file. And still no menus.

I would have expected
Tools->A Menu->Logging
->Generate Support Bundle

TIA
