It asks you that question because the toolbar is a type of form, and you're trying to add it to another form.

I'm now sorry I spoke up, because I understand what you're saying and it makes sense. If you read my first reply, I said "I've seen someone else here state...", I was not responding from personal knowledge of having done it. But others here have talked about it. Go to the search function and look for postings with "toolbar" in them. Maybe you'll find someone else with a more informed message than mine.

Against my better judgement, I'm going to speculate a bit more about what the other people may have said, which I've largely forgotten now because I haven't applied it in my work. Maybe they were saying you could run a toolbar from within a form programmatically. Maybe they were saying you could run code which both instantiates a form and the toolbar every time you want to run the form. Maybe they were just pointing out that you don't have to have a formset to define a toolbar, although to add a toolbar to a form in the form designer or class designer, of course you have to make the form and toolbar a formset (by answering the question yes), because they are two separate forms.

I'm sorry I tried to answer your question with incomplete knowledge of the situation. I hope you get a better answer from someone else.
