Extending Excel Context Menu

Extending Excel Context Menu

The SaveToDB add-in allows you to extend the Microsoft Excel context menu.

There are three available submenus:

  • Actions
  • Open URL
  • Table Views

Actions Context Menu

The Actions menu lets you execute various tasks:

  • Run stored procedures and SQL queries
  • Make HTTP requests and open URLs
  • Execute VBA macros

You can customize this menu using the context menu elements in the Reports tab configuration.

Developers can modify the menu through event handlers with the ContextMenu event type. For more details, refer to the Developer Guide.

Here’s a sample of the context menu:

Example of the SaveToDB Context Menu

You can enable or disable this feature using the Options dialog box.
