need help in creating templates

Question

Hi There I am struggling and getting frustrated in creating 2 type of particular templates. 1) a template that when i create a new vb project contains my own MDIParent form with a toolbar in it and some other stuff. I have created the form however i cannot figure out how to do the rest like Create a folder "Myprojects" Put the myTemplateMDIProject there so that whenever i want to create a new mdiProject I press new Project --->Go to myProject folder and click my template OR ADD A FORM TO MY LOCALPROJECTITEM TEMPLATES AGAIN CREATE A FOLDER "MYLOCALProjectITem" so when i add new item i can go to the folder and Add MY "DIALOGBASE FORM". I have already created my dialogbaseform but i dont know how to do the above COULD YOU HELP ME PLEASE I LOOKED ALL OVER ON THE MSDN BUT THERE IS NOT EVEN ONE EXAMPLE HOW TO DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT.

Thanks for replying I looked at example but it does not exactly what I needor if it does it was not clear TO ME. Scenario: There are some forms I use all the times. MDIParent form with toolbar/ListBar etc. Dialog Form base Add Edit form base I know I could put them in a dll and then inherit from thembut this is not the point What I would like to do is and I am amazed that MS has not created a wizard that you can pick up a form YOU CREATEDcreate a folder and then automatically add to your templates. what I need and the article there seems not to deal with it is I press new Project I See in project Types a folder called My VBProjects open that folder see MDIProject I press that I get all the stuff i created before. also I have a project open I press Add new Item and I see a Folder Called MyItems I open this Form and I see MyDialogBaseForm MyAddEditbaseForm etc CAN ANYBODY HELP ME ON THIS ONE?????? I am happy to buy more than 01 beer if you live in london A walkthrough would be ideal because the process is a bit nasty. Thanks a lot Gabriel
