You have to make the object visible after you create/add it? This is don'e on purpose so you can set the visible attributes prior to it being shows. Here is some code in the command window.

oX = CreateObject('toolbar')
ox.Visible=.t.
ox.AddObject('button1','commandbutton')
ox.button1.Width = 22
ox.Button1.Height = 22
ox.button1.Visible = .t.
