I've got some base classes I'm creating with a specific set of functionality
that needs to be present throughout our app. I'm not finding any way to
programmatically get to the control menu in the upper left of each window.
I've always been able to add to this in the past. How do I get access to
this now?

We're using VStudio Team Suite .NET 2.0....

Thanks!

Control menu is not exposed to the manage code beside hiding/showing it.

If you want to modify this menu you need to resort to using PInvoke and
Win32 API. Get handle to the control manu using GetSystemMenu Win32 API
mehod.
