Hi John,

You should be able to undock the toolbar, and close it. The next time you go into form designer, it should not appear. VFP remembers the toolbar status, so if it's open when you leave, it will be there when you go back.

>I know this is a dumb question (and not terribly important), but does anyone know how to keep the Form Controls toolbar from appearing every time I open the Form Designer?
