Question: How do I add menus in QuoteWerks? Solution: You can customize the Tools menu in QuoteWerks to add menu items that will launch other applications. This is particularly useful for launching related applications such as the distributor electronic price guides, your contact manager, add-on utilities etc. The menu options you add will appear in the circled area in the Tools drop down menu. To customize the Tools menu you must edit the text file MENUOPTS.ADD which is located in the QuoteWerks directory. You will need to use a text editor such as NOTEPAD.EXE that comes with Windows. Each line in the MENUOPTS.ADD file will add a menu item to your customized menu. Each line has the following format: {Menu Item Text}=[{Working Directory}]{space}{Executable Name and Path} To add a separator bar which separates menu items with a line, enter a hyphen followed by an equals sign on a line. The following is an example of a MENUOPTS.ADD file, showing all possible uses: \QuoteWerks\MENUOPTS.ADD [Menu] Calculator=calc.exe Tech Data Online for Windows=[f:\bin\td200] f:\bin\td200\cod.exe Ingram for DOS=[f:\bin\ingramw] f:\bin\ingramw\ingram.exe -= DOS=dosprmpt.pif NotePad List=notepad.exe c:\data\mylist.txt Windows Explorer=explorer.exe QuoteWerks Website=www.quotewerks.com QuoteWerks Product Info=www.quotewerks.com/prodinfo.htm Intel Data Sheet=c:\data\intelmatrix.pdf Make sure to leave a blank line at the end of the text file in order for the last item in the list to show. |
