SUMMARY
When you modify a built-in toolbar, that information is stored in the System.mdw file (or SYSTEM.MDA file in version 2.0). The Microsoft Access documentation states that when you modify a built-in toolbar, it is changed in all your databases. Actually, it is changed in all your databases in your Workgroup. If you change Workgroups or use the same database on a different computer with a different System.mdw file, you will not see the modified toolbar.



MORE INFORMATION
Unlike the built-in toolbars, custom toolbars are stored in the database in which they were created and are only available in that database. In Microsoft Access for Windows 95, custom toolbars can be imported from another database.
