How to access sub menu items in Menu Bar

[mookashi]

hi,
how do i programamtically access the values set in the sub menu item
of the Menu Bar in the Explorer window.
Suppose i want to know the values set in the Tools/Options menu lik
the Message Format(whether the user has selected plain/html/rich text)
or the signature he has set, how do i get these values.

i have tried using the commandbarcontrols but im not able to get
through to that level.

Here is what im trying to do

Dim tempBar As Office.CommandBar
Dim tempcontrols As Office.CommandBarControls
Dim tempcontrol As Office.CommandBarControl

Dim i As Integer

Set tempBar = Application.ActiveExplorer.CommandBars.Item("Tools")
Set tempcontrols = tempBar.Controls("Options")

how do i go ahead from her

Most of those options are settings in the Windows registry and therefore
have to be set with registry code. There's no comprehensive list, although
some values are documented in the MSKB. Have fun experimenting.
