Oh no!
Offhand I don't know of a way to add them all back at once but you can add them individually.
Right-click on the Toolbox and select Choose Items. Check the boxes next to the controls that you want and click OK.
Don't check the boxes next to more than one of any particular control. For example, if it lists 2 TextBox controls, just pick one. Otherwise you'll get multiple copies of the same tool in the Toolbox.
Also note that some different libraries provide similar controls so you'll need to pick the one you want. For example, you probably want System.Windows.Forms controls and may not want VBA or Office controls.
I hope you get it fixed!

I hope somebody can help me.
I did something stupid. I'm not sure what. And somehow I deleted all the tools from my toolbox. I have no idea how to get them back.
I have uninstalled VB Express (using RevoUninstaller to get rid of registry entries), deleted all my settings files, and reinstalled. But still no tools. Somewhere the program is remembering that I deleted them all.
Any help would be appreciated.
