If you've ever tried to use the standard Toolbar customise feature then you will know it doesn't work. This is a documented bug - visit MS and do a search. They offer some solutions, but these only partially rectify the problems. The problems involve an inabilty to reliably save the configuration of the Toolbar and a failure to display unused items in the left hand selection Listview.
My fix
Scrap the feature entirely - uncheck AllowCustimize checkbox in properties
Replace the dialog with a clone form
Power the function with a simple class
