CommandBars and menu items in Microsoft Access 2003

[Sascha]

We're trying to develop a com-addin for microsoft access 2003 to support
database developers. We need to add a commandbar or a menu item. Trying to
add a commandbar in the OnConnection event works fine for word or excel
addins but not for access addins. It seems that custom command bars can only
be added if a database has been opened, but the addin is loaded on
application statup which is before a database is opened and the addin is
independent from the database.

Any help highly appreciated.

Does anyone know how the source code control addin
(http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=2ea45ff4-a916-48c5-8f84-44b91fa774b
c&displaylang=en) adds its menu items?

Thanks and regards
