GUIDs and IDs of Visual Studio Menus
This topic enumerates the GUID and ID values of the menus and groups on the Visual Studio menu bar. These values are defined in .vsct files that are installed as part of the Visual Studio SDK. For more information, see IDE-Defined Commands, Menus, and Groups.
For more information about how to work with integrated development environment (IDE) objects that are defined in .vsct files, see Common Tasks with Commands, Menus, and Toolbars.
The menus and groups on the Visual Studio menu bar use the GUID guidSHLMainMenu. The menu bar itself has an ID of IDM_VS_TOOL_MAINMENU.

Submenus of Visual Studio Menus
The following hierarchy shows the submenus that are associated with the menus on the Visual Studio menu bar. Because only a group can have a menu as its parent, every submenu must descend from a group on a menu, instead of directly from the menu. For more information about the relationship between menus, groups, and submenus, see How to: Create Menus, SubMenus, and Shortcut Menus.
참고
The names of the menus on the Visual Studio menu bar are not separately shown in this hierarchy because they can be inferred from the naming convention for groups in the IDE, as follows: IDG_VS_Menu Name_Group Name.
