The old access version allowed me to click a toolbox icon when designing a form. The icon looks like a hammer and wrench. MS Access 2007 displays the icon, but it doesn't work. How do I activate this toolbox icon.

Toolbox not Working

I did try the toolbox on a fresh database and again found that the toolbox does not work. I installed MS Access 2007 a few days again so I'm on a learning curve. I just discovered that all the functions formerly in the MS Access 2000 toolbox are displayed in the MS Access 2007 standard toolbar, so there really is no need for the toolbox. For example, combo box and list box were formerly accessed via the toolbox, but now are displayed in the standard toolbar. This actually saves us the trouble of clicking the toolbox icon each time we need to create a combo box, so this appears to be another software enhancement. 
Thanks for helping me again with using MS Access. I really appreciate the kind and thoughtful support.
