Power Point 2007 shapes context menu items

Question
-
Hi Guys,
In version 2003 I add my menu items to the shape's context menu items ( when user clicks shape and then right mouse button). I search for CommandBars["Shortcut Menus"] and then for Draw.Slide Background or Draw.Shapes. It worked ok, but on 2007 version I cannot repeat this functionality,

Hi Piotr,
I have realized that the functionality is not available as a part of PowerPoint 2007. The reason is the PowerPoint 2007 is more inclined towards ribbon based interfaces rather than the classical context menus.
Please refer this blog for futher information.
