It seems the variable oNoteBar exists somewhere in your main.prg and stays visible for as long as your app is active. When you run the above code, the variable is created as private, and goes out of scope as soon as this code exits. This makes reference count for your toolbar go to zero, and it gets released.

Just try to create the variable in the command window before you run this form. It should be public then.
