Win XP
Is it possible to add to the menu which appears when the mouse is right
clicked?
It would be very useful if an entry on this menu was "Insert (my) E-mail
Address"

You must first decide what context menus that you wish to add a new entry
for.

In exactly what kind of situations would you be using this?

Your context menu contents, by definition, change wherever you are clicking.
Sounds like you want to add an "autotext" entry...you can do this in Word,
but I don't know how else you could accomplish it.
 
Re: Right Click Menu

It's the context menu that appears when any web page is clicked.

Re: Right Click Menu

There may be easier ways to insert an email address (like a clipboard
enhancer, e.g. Clipmate) but read this for your question:

Re: Right Click Menu

I could make it for you, but I need to know exactly
what you want to do.

My guess, so far:

In Internet Explorer I want to right-click on a link
in a web page and . . .

Doesn't make sense, please clarify.

Using what? IE? Where on a webpage? A form?

Check out the Google Toolbar - it has an "autofill" feature for forms.

Re: Right Click Menu

Oh, I think I've got it!

You want to right-click inside a form space in Internet Explorer
to insert your E-mail address, right?

Re: Right Click Menu

Frequently when using web pages/sites, particularly when form filling, an
e-mail address is required.
It would be very convenient to right click in the appropriate box and for
the resulting context menu to have
"E-mail Address" in addition to the usual undo, cut, copy, paste and select
all.
Hope this clarifies.

You might have more luck if you visit the notion of "keyboard macros."

OK - so I guessed correctly. I don't know how you could do this. Try the
Google Toolbar. It's free and works very well.

That's not even close, Kelly. That's to right-click and Send an E-mail.
