Disappeared Toolbox

[accessidiot]

I am teaching myself about Access, using access 2000. When I try to create a new form in Design view the properties box & field list box appear as expected but there is no toolbox. The toolbox button on the database toolbar shows toolbox as active (clicking it de-activates it) and it is selected in the View Menu. Tools->Customise has the toolbox check box ticked. Nothing I do makes the toolbox visible. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? Any help appreciated

Maybe this is a really dumb question, but could it be attached to your other toolbars at the top of the screen (instead of floating independently) and that's why you don't see it?

No such luck! It is nowhere to be seen. I have also uninstalled and re-installed Access without recovering the toolbox

Disapped Toolbox

I have now recovered the toolbox by going back to a system backup before Access installation and then installing Access again. Panic is over
