>I need a way to have a toolbar which would instantiate, set a few settings and hide. Now user will have the command window available. How do I prevent this toolbar from being released when the user issues Clear All? I tried adding it as a property of _screen, and the property stays there - but gets to be .null. when the object is cleared.

The best I could do real quick is with a toolbar. I set the ControlBox to .F. and put:
nodefault
return .f.
in the Release method of the toolbar. It now can not be closed or released. Well, it can not be released very easily. toolbarobject = .null. will destroy it.
