My problem with the toolbar was that I did not have the current directory pointing at the J library. Fixed the path in the form and the pictures showed up. Also, looks like the problem with the line drawing characters is a problem with the way an edit control displays the line drawing characters. Even though a fixed font is selected the line drawing characters are not fixed width. Changed to ascii line draw and the problem went away.
