I'm not sure what you was meant by "shortcut popup menu". I assume it is the
shortcut menu when you right-click on the worksheet.

Try the following code. Copy and paste into a module, and run
"add_menu_item". You can use the same method to modify any menu. Just replace
the name of the "cell" menu with your target menu name.

'--------------------------------------
Sub add_menu_item()
With Application.CommandBars("Cell").Controls
With .Add(msoControlButton)
.Caption = "My Item"
.OnAction = "my_macro"
End With
End With
End Sub

Private Sub my_macro()
MsgBox ("Hello")
End Sub
'--------------------------------------
