    To add a menu to the Delphi IDE you must use the Delphi Open Tools API. from here you can access the Main menu of the delphi IDE using a code like this.

    LMainMenu:=(BorlandIDEServices as INTAServices).MainMenu;

    or

    LMainMenu:=(BorlandIDEServices as INTAServices).GetMainMenu;

    And then add the menu items which you want.
