>I have an app with a menu bar that is not part of any formset. I would like a toolbar that is also not part of any formset, but tied to the menu bar functions. All of the documents I read tell how to move the toolbar class you create to a formset by dragging it into the formset from the project manager.

>How do you activate a toolbar without having a form?
You're thinking as I think. I never approved the toolbar per form as shown in the SAMPLES.
Just create the toolbar object in the setup and show it like this:
* Show the main toolbar
This.oToolBar=CREATEOBJECT('ToolbarObjectName')
This.oToolBar.Show()
Then, in the Activate() and QueryUnLoad() of your baseform, you can deal with the enabling of each button.
