How do I get rid of the tool bar?

When I delete it, it goes away while the dialogue box is still open, but when
I close the box it comes back. (Frankliy, I'd like to get rid of BCM
entirely.)

You can remove the BCM toolbar by disabling the add-in or by uninstalling
BCM from "Add or Remove Programs" in Control Panel.

Is the program to delete "Small Business Connectivity Components"? I
certainly don't want to delete all of Outlook.

It is called "Business Contact Manager for Outlook 2007" in the list of
programs. This will not uninstall Outlook.

That did the trick! Thanks so much.

Disabling the add in did it for me.

Outlook -->Tools -->Trust Centre -->Add Ins

Click on the BCM line in active, make sure that the drop down at the bottom
is com add ins and click go.

Unselect BCM and away the screen hungry toolbar goes.

It would have been much better to just be able to unselect the toolbar or
delete it in the normal way though.

This looks like a good option for me, but when I try to uncheck the box
'Business Contact Manager for Outlook' [in the COM Add-Ins window] I get the
message:

"The connected state of Office Add-Ins registered in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
cannot be changed."

Can anyone help further?

Is this on Vista?

Yes, Vista.

Actually, I was impatient and just turned off BCM completely. I didn't use
it anyway. I was trying to get the menu/tool bars to stay put and hoped the
BCM bar was the issue. It cleaned it up a little, as now there's one less
bar, but they still don't remain in the same place.

Is it a Vista issue. Or could the McAfee bar be causing the same problem as
BCM?

So is the ONLY way to NOT display the cumbersome toolbar is to get rid of the
BCM add-in entirely??? Surely there must be another way??

I definitely don't want the toolbar and have experienced the same
frustration of other users above -- i.e. following the help info for how to
not display toolbars, then to delete the toolbar. But it just doesn't work.

But I might want to use the BCM occassionally so would rather not uninstall
the whole add-in program just to make annoying TB go away. (I already tried
deleting individual buttons from BCM TB. Didn't work. . . )

A little consistency about feature operations would sure save users anguish
and time, and get less traffic to sites like this. I have a TRULY third party
"Delete Duplicates" add-in in Outlook at its toolbar does work consistently
with other non-add-in TBs so don't see why BCM won't/can't too)
