Hi, Jon
I don't remember all the details, but the crux of the matter is that toolbars are windows which may be HIDE'n, SHOW'n, RELEASE'd, ACTIVATE'd and DEACTIVATE'd. As an example type "DEACTIVATE WINDOW 'Standard'" in the command window. The toolbar with the file open/close icons etc. will disappear. Each toolbar has a window name. The CodeBook3 framework runs a loop DEACTIVATE'ing all toolbars in a hard-coded array. It reactivates all toolbars that it deactivated on shutdown.

Hope this helps.
Ned
