toolbar

A bar that contains a set of buttons, menus, or other controls that you can click to carry out common menu commands.

Note In Microsoft Access 97 and later versions, toolbars and menus have been combined into a single entity, called "toolbars" in the user interface and "command bars" in Visual Basic for Applications. Toolbars can be one of the following types: menu bar, toolbar, or pop-up menu (shortcut menus, drop-down menus, or submenus).
