Remarks

This method returns an element identifier equivalent to SEID_WindowFrame or SEID_ResultList. In order to define a new selection element, a GUID needs to be registered under HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\\SelectionElements\ as a subkey. For example:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\VisualStudio\8.0\SelectionElements\

{...guid1...}\@ = "Team System Active Portfolio Project"

{...guid2...}\@ = "Team System Active Team Foundation Server"
