Also, the visibility of it is stored in the foxuser.dbf file so you can turn it off on yours and then distribute the foxuser file(s) with your app. You may have it turned on in one of the foxuser files. Another option is too add this to your main prg:

Now as I read your message I think I see what is the difference. The customer where the toolbar shows has VFP9ENU.DLL and VFP9.exe in the same folder as the executable. So maybe even though the application does not start from the IDE, the toolbar shows simply because these two files are there. I will connect again, remove the "offending" files and see what changes.

The code above that you posted is pretty much what I used to have in my application. And I removed it. I will probably put it back.

Thank you for your help.
