That's a big step in the right direction:

I'm trying to get the toolbars to "collapse" into one line if possible, so they don't "creep" as forms and form code windows are opened and closed. Perhaps to have a small program on an ON KEY to run to reset them all to their proper places. The MOUSE DBLCLICK method works to dock them, but doesn't give any control as to where they dock.

Also, the MOUSE DBLCLICK method toggles the dock status: programmatically there must be some way to determine the docked status to tell if it needs to be docked or not.
