  Hi friends I have got the information required  .
  
  To extend a property page we have PropertySheetExtension Class. In Our SnapIn attributes have an  extendsNodeType attribute where you can define the node type which you want to extend.OnAddProperty pages method adds the property page to the collection of property pages .
  
  This is the way to add a property page to an existing Snapin,
  
  Thanks

  I've also tried the InstallUtil.exe utility but this adds the property.
  
  Here's my propertyextension implementation:
  
  [SnapInSettings("{A841B6C2-7577-11D0-BB1F-00A0C922E79C}",
  DisplayName = "Extension to IIS prop sheet",
  Description = "Adds a Property Page to IIS")]
  [ExtendsNodeType("{CBEE6796-493B-4e84-95DA-F0F8717C8C2B}")]
  
  public class IISPropertySheetExtension : PropertySheetExtension
  {
  public IISPropertySheetExtension()
  {
  
  }
  
  protected override void OnAddPropertyPages(PropertyPageCollection propertyPageCollection)
  {
  PropertyPage page = new PropertyPage();
  page.Title = "me new page";
  
  propertyPageCollection.Add(page);
  base.OnAddPropertyPages(propertyPageCollection);
  }
  }

  My understanding is that the
  SnapInSettings attribute is our new propertypages guid.
  ExtendsNodeType attribute is the existing snapin guid onto who's propertysheet we wish to append a property page.
  Is this correct

  Probably my question could be put this way:
  Extending the ComputerManagement -LocalUsers and groups snapin
  which should get the extra property page which displays information from the database and a button for some new functionality.
  
  Hope some one knows this

  Hi Friends,
  Sorry for being Late.
  have a look at the code below
   [SnapInSettings("{2698071B-151D-48b3-9264-7A9F8AD8D668}",
             DisplayName = "extension to prop sheet",
              Description = "Adds a Property Page to Computer Management")]
      [ExtendsNodeType("{5D6179CC-17EC-11D1-9AA9-00C04FD8FE93}")]
  
  Where the Guid inside the SnapIn settings Attribute is the Guid with which the
   created Snapin registers itself in the Registry.This Guid is randomly generated.< xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />

   ExtendsNodetype: Specifies which node types should be extended. It is an optional attribute. Multiple instances of this attribute may be applied to a single snap-in class.

   

  ("{5D6179CC-17EC-11D1-9AA9-00C04FD8FE93}") this is the GUID of the Users node under the local users and groups. This is taken from Registry.
  

  
  Second step , We need to override the function OnAddPropertyPages
  to add the property page.
  
  This is what i have done.But What is the clipBoard format that should be shared among the property Pages is not ound any where.
  please help if any one knows
  
  thanks

  Hi,
  I'm presently working on a similar task, trying to add a propertypage to a propertysheet.
  I've created the PropertySheetExtension class and overridden the OnAddPropertyPages() method but how can I register this with mmc.
  the regsvr32 script will not allow it, "DLLRegisterServer entry point not found".
  
  Is there some more funtionality before trying to register or am I completely off the mark
  
  Anyone manage to locate examples code for this type of exercise

  I am very interested in what you have written.
  This being said I don't understand the 'In Our SnapIn attributes have an  extendsNodeType attribute where you can define the node type which you want to extend.'
   
  Could you translate into code what you mean   That would be very appreciated, and used!
