    Don,

    The toolbox is only visible when you have on your IDE a form or another
    designable component.

    I hope this helps?

      What OS are you using, and did you install any service packs lately?
      There's some discussion of this happening when you install SP2 on XP while a
      virus scanner is running. I'm not certain of the fix, though. The folks
      who've been helped by MS on this problem haven't shared the actual solution,
      although I suspect you can turn off virus scanning and reinstall SP2.

      HTH,
