Add two Command Buttons to Solution Explorer Context Menu - Visual Studion Add In

The code below should show a custom context menu item when the user right clicks on a "Project" and a different custom context menu item when the user clicks on a "Folder" in Visual Studio 2010 Solution Explorer.

The first part is working just fine - hello new Menu Item yey! - the second part when the user right clicks on Folder - isn't - it always displays the standard old context menu without the new menu item.

Any idea where I'm going wrong? It's ok to create two Command objects, right?

public void OnConnection(object application, ext_ConnectMode connectMode, object addInInst, ref Array custom)
    {
        _applicationObject = (DTE2)application;
        _addInInstance = (AddIn)addInInst;

        if(connectMode == ext_ConnectMode.ext_cm_UISetup)
        {
            object []contextGUIDS = new object[] { };
            Commands2 commands = (Commands2)_applicationObject.Commands;
            CommandBars cBars = (CommandBars)_applicationObject.CommandBars;
            try
            {
                Command commandProjectSettings = commands.AddNamedCommand2(_addInInstance, "DavecProjectSchemaSettings", "Davec Project Settings", "Manages Database Project Settings", false, 1, ref contextGUIDS, (int)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusSupported+(int)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusEnabled, (int)vsCommandStyle.vsCommandStylePictAndText, vsCommandControlType.vsCommandControlTypeButton);
                Command commandAddSchemaUpdate = commands.AddNamedCommand2(_addInInstance, "DavecProjectUpdate", "Davec Update", "Updates Database Schema", false, 2, ref contextGUIDS, (int)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusSupported + (int)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusEnabled, (int)vsCommandStyle.vsCommandStylePictAndText, vsCommandControlType.vsCommandControlTypeButton);

                CommandBar vsBarProject = cBars["Project"];
                CommandBar vsBarFolder = cBars["Folder"];

                commandProjectSettings.AddControl(vsBarProject, 1);
                commandAddSchemaUpdate.AddControl(vsBarFolder, 1);

            }
            catch(System.ArgumentException)
            {
                //ignore
            }

            _solutionEvents = _applicationObject.Events.SolutionEvents;
            _solutionEvents.Opened += new _dispSolutionEvents_OpenedEventHandler(SolutionEvents_Opened);

            _documentEvents = _applicationObject.Events.DocumentEvents;
            _documentEvents.DocumentSaved += new _dispDocumentEvents_DocumentSavedEventHandler(_documentEvents_DocumentSaved);   
        }
    }

I needed to include new command in the QueryStatus method, which is called when the command's availability is updated i.e.

    public void QueryStatus(string commandName, vsCommandStatusTextWanted neededText, ref vsCommandStatus status, ref object commandText)
    {
        if(neededText == vsCommandStatusTextWanted.vsCommandStatusTextWantedNone)
        {
            if (commandName == "Sappha.Davec.VSAddIn.Connect.DavecProjectSchemaSettings")
            {
                status = (vsCommandStatus)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusSupported|vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusEnabled;
                return;
            }

            if (commandName == "Sappha.Davec.VSAddIn.Connect.DavecProjectUpdate")
            {
                status = (vsCommandStatus)vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusSupported | vsCommandStatus.vsCommandStatusEnabled;
                return;
            }
        }
    }
