They are classes in VPMFORMS, sub-classed to PROFORMS. Look for TOOLBAR_ALL etc.

Hi Stephen,

Thanks for the reply. However, where can I find this?

Should I add this as an activex control like in visual foxpro?

VPM is a very great tool, able to build application in lesser time is so amazing. I really wanted to get the hang of this application tool. I've been reading the help file but I don't seem to find any topic on how to activate the vpm form control tool bars.

Best regards,

If you open the Project Manager, click on the Classes tab and scroll down to find ProForms you should find the toolbars there.

The activation of the toolbars is automatic. As an example, create a new form based on the class FORM_TOOLBAR and then run it. You will see the toolbar appear at the top of the screen.

I have not used VPM Standard, but presumably the documentation includes the Tutorial walkthrough. Follow this and it shows how to design forms with the toolbar. Also look in the documentation for the sections 'Creating forms'.
