Custom Delete on File Menu

Hi, I am new to interwoven suite of products. I am currently working on adding a custom delete link to the "File" menu. The link should function as role-based. The delete link will execute a custom perl script.
I want to make sure whether I am following the right steps below.

step 1: Modify file ui_custom.xml to add a new delete link
\\....home...\httpd\webapps\content_center\WEB-INF\conf\customer

step 2: Modify file roles_custom.xml in the same folder to add role-based functionality.

step 3: run make_toolkit.ipl

Do I need to modify/configure any additional files other than those I mentioned above? Please help.

We are using TeamSite 6.1 (ContentCenter Pro) on Windows 2003 server.

Thanks in advance
Jeff

You are not supposed to directly modify Files in the Path you've indicated. Correct location is
iw-home/local/config/lib/content_center/customer_src/etc/conf/customer

See Interwoven® User Interface Customization Guide for details

Thanks for correcting the path. But can you tell me whether the steps I have mentioned are the correct steps?

Basically that's correct. Very basically. As you know though the Devil is in details. For example, "Perl script" you've
casually mentioned above should be a properly located CGI script, File menu already has original 'Delete'
Entry, etc...

Thanks for quick reply.

Yes, Perl script located in (..\httpd\iw-bin) folder. We are plugging-in custom delete functionality.
