Alex, Your different logbook mdb files have nothing to do with the TOOLBARS .. the only thing that controls them is YOUR DXB2007.INI file in your windows directory ...
If you have one instance of DXbase2007 -- and you follow the steps that I will list here now:: //quote// 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. //end of quote// You can NOT go wrong .... make SURE that you have ONLY one dxb2007.ini file .. and that you ARE following the instructions I quoted above ... you will be all ok after that ... 73 Joe wa6axe > From: [email protected] > To: [email protected] > Date: Tue, 9 Aug 2011 18:58:52 +0100 > CC: [email protected] > Subject: [Dxbase] TOOLBAR BUTTONS GONE CRAZY!!! > > THE TOPOF THE SCREEN BUTTON TOOL BAR IS GONE NUTS---THE BUTONS ARE NOW > VERTICAL,HORIZONTAL ETC.
