And why would you want to do that? Also, please tag your question correctly. Your ASP.Net tag has nothing to do with the context of your question, which is Windows Application.

Please clarify your question. What do you mean "add Windows XP Start menu button"? Add the image or the functionality?

He must be trying to create a windows Explorer like application.

You want to add start menu item for your application ?
In this case you can add a shortcut to your application in C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu or C:\Documents and Settings\<user>\Start Menu

How to create a shortcut ? Use an installer. Or google:
