No Android project type available in Eclipse->File->New-Project

I have installed latest JDK and ADT bundle package (I'm working under Windows 7, 32 bits OS)
I installed all the possibly needed packages in ADT Manager.
I defined ADT location in Eclipse->Window->Preferences->Android
But I still have no option to start File->New->Project->Android->Android Project or
File->New->Other->Android Project
I have many other options like:
Android Activity
Android Application Project
Android Icon Set
Android Object
Android Project from Existing Code Android Sample Project
Android test Project
etc..
But all these are not what I need.
I already looked on existing questions here like No Android project type in Eclipse->File->New-Project and others and also on several similar questions on other forums but still did not found an answer for my problem.

You have Android Application Project. What exactly do you think Android Project is? You are trying to create an applicaiton, correct? Then Android Application Project is what you want.

There is no "Android Project" option. In fact, I've never seen it. Basically, you have the following:

Android Activity - you just want to create an activity Android Application Project - This creates a complete android application project to create an application that you can install and launch on an android device. Android Project from Existing Code - import existing code into an Android Project

There are many more as you found out. But, most of the time, you would use Android Application Project.

You don't really specify what it is you are looking at creating specifically, so I'm going to assume this is what you want.

If you could give more information as to exactly what you think "Android Project" is for and what you are trying to accomplish with it, that would help.

Per the ADT tutorial site, they have the instructions on creating an Android Project, which is generic. There are numerous types of Android Project, with the Android Application Project being one of them. Not sure if this is where you are getting the name "Android Project" from or not. Here is the link: http://developer.android.com/training/basics/firstapp/creating-project.html

Everything you state at this point shows you have installed ADT correctly and it's integrated properly with Eclipse.
