>Is there any way to make the tool bars I select be persistent? It seems that each time I go into a report to edit it the tool bars I was using previously are no longer shown. I'd like to have the system to automatically open the Report Controls and the Layout toolbars each time I do a 'Modify Report...' command or select the report from the project.

Open any report and activate the toolbars you want to be present when Modify report is used. Before you do that, make sure that SET RESOURCE is ON because this info is stored in the foxuser.dbf.
