Dave,
DO the steps that are well documented in the Help Files under
Toolbars Vanished
Here is what THIS says:
Toolbars Vanished
In the past, we have had some reports that all of sudden, when DXbase was started, the toolbars with the bitmap buttons have disappeared. A check of the VIEW/Toolbars menu indicates that they are turned on but yet they are not on the screen.
Among the dozens of clean up activities that occur when you exit DXbase, one event is that all screen coordinates and other information about your various toolbars is saved to the DXbase INI file located in your Windows directory. We have never been able to determine the cause for this condition. We suspect that perhaps DXbase was not closed properly, or there was a write error to the hard drive when the settings were being written to your INI file, but with only a few reports we have been unable to find any cause/effect.
Follow this process for correcting this problem:
Close DXbase.
Using Wordpad, open your DXbase INI file located in your Windows directory.
Inside the INI file, you will find a large number (approximately 15 of them) of sections which have the title [Dt………] followed by a number of entries within each of these sections.
Delete every section which begins with [Dt…….] AND, all entries within each of these sections.
Save your changes to text format.
Now when you start DXbase, your toolbars will be displayed in the default locations. Reposition them etc. to meet your needs.
