I have built the custom win form.But i need to know who can i call this form on click on the win form.

Has any one did this?

Sudheer,

I am not clear what your requirement is. Do you want to show your winforms form when someone clicks (or double clicks) on All tasks node in Team explorer? If so, I'd like to know the scenario on why. Or, do you want to show a form when someone clicks on a menu item with current focus on All tasks node? If you need to access the WIT UI elements from an addin or VSIP, you can check http://blogs.msdn.com/narend/archive/2006/07/07/AccessingWitFromAddin.aspx

Intercepting the double click on the "All Tasks" node could be very problematic. A very doable option is to write an addin to provide a menu option on the "All Tasks" and invoke your form when your menu item is clicked.

Thanks Naren for the help. My requirement is "Want to show my winform when some one clicks on All task node in Team Explorer". So as per Ravi's suggestion , do we need to create a addin to solve this puprose?

Yes, I agree with Ravi. Using an addin and a menu option is preferred approach.
