If you want to show a particular toolbar on just one form or report, you can set the OnActivate property of the form or report to the name of a macro that contains a ShowToolbar action to show the toolbar. Then set the OnDeactivate property of the form or report to the name of a macro that contains a ShowToolbar action to hide the toolbar.
