Missing Composition Bar
My Composition Bar is missing. I have tried the Menu,View, Toolbars but I do not have a Composition Bar. I have checked Options Composition and everything is fine. I have tried everything that i can think of and have also talked with the local Computer Repair and no solution has yet been suggested. I have also had replies from Airmail from this forum and have followed his suggestions with no success. I would appreciate any and all help, but please remember that I am a novice at this and need detailed instructions to fix the problem. Thanks to all

Yes that is what I am looking for, however when it was on my screen it was in the header area, now it is in the footer area above the Task Bar. This is OK with me, it will just take a little getting used to. Sorry to be such a pain, but being a novice in technical matters, I tried my best to explain my problem. Thanks for all your help.

The Composition Toolbar exists in the Write (composition) window. If you are using the View-Toolbars in your inbox window you are never going to find it.
I asked you for screenshots to better explain your issue and you seem unwilling or unable to do that.
Here are screenshots of both my Inbox and Write windows showing the toolbar choices under View.
I am still unclear on what your real issue is.

When I open Write, and click on View and drop down Toolbars, I am able to see Menu Bar, Composition Toolbar, Formatting Bar and Status Bar. The Formatting Bar does not have a Check Mark while the others do. Also when I click on Write the following appear, Send, Attach,Security and Save. What does not appear are Save, Reply, Reply All, Forward, Delete, Junk. These are the buttons I would like to restore.
Man you are all over the place. There never is a Reply, Reply All, Forward, Junk in the Write window. Send, Attach, Security and Save are on the Composition Toolbar you keep claiming that you do not have and now say you have these showing. ???
Maybe you are looking for the buttons on the Message Pane header. When in your INBOX window press F8 and see if that is what you are missing. See attached image of my Inbox with the message pane turned on.

You can customize the buttons on the Mail Toolbar, again in the INBOX window. This toolbar starts off with Get mail and Write. Right click that toolbar and select Customize. Find the buttons that you are looking for and drag them to the toolbar and drop them where you want them.
