Need ProgID for context menu properties command

Question

This doesn't seem to be in the list of ProgIDs in the SDK help. I need to add the "Properties" command  into an add-in I'm developing. In Arcmap, it's found on the context menu when you right-click on a selected graphic element.

Anyone know the ProgID or the CLSID for it?

Thanks!
Steve

Thank you Griek, this is very helpful and John Hauck's approach makes more sense than pro grammatically determining GUID/ CLSID without validation. I myself will start to use this approach.
I had removed the post prior as I wanted to look into this further, but you had beat me to the punch of responding.

(So for anyone else reading this) I had briefly posted explaining ways of gathering the GUID clsID through namespace classnames)

Hi Mike,

My response is based on the same issue I had finding a GUID. Please see Customize Context Menus?. Where John Hauck (ESRI) explained that the only context menus that can be customized are the ones that appear in the list. Following John's approach I have been very successful in customizing many of the context menus.

However, I do like your programmatic approach it just lacks the verification of customization as explained by John.

Interesting alternative Grieck

I never found a list so I do this: simply write a couple lines of code to GET the CLSID based on any Namespace, Class.

For example: AccessWorkspaceFactoryClass
        Dim objFactory As ESRI.ArcGIS.Framework.IObjectFactory = TryCast(m_application, ESRI.ArcGIS.Framework.IObjectFactory)
        Dim AccessWkspFactType As Type = GetType(ESRI.ArcGIS.DataSourcesGDB.AccessWorkspaceFactoryClass)
        Dim typeClsID As String = AccessWkspFactType.GUID.ToString("B")
        Dim workspaceFactory As ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IWorkspaceFactory = DirectCast(objFactory.Create(typeClsID), ESRI.ArcGIS.Geodatabase.IWorkspaceFactory)
