Thanks for the API link. Very helpful. Did not see anything in it that would explicitly add a UI item to the main screen though. If I am wrong and some one knows that it's possible I can do the grunt work of coding it just need a start point. I'm at work now and cannot check the DLLs but when I get home will see what I can't pick through that might not be in the docs.
Thanks @neil9000 and @Retro808 for the replies and help though.
