Thanking in advance for any help.

Check the Settings Menu:
Settings -> Toolbars -> Hide Location Toolbar

Thanks for the reply.

I had already set and cleared my Settings->Location Toolbar check box several times. It has no effect. I have gone into Settings->configure->Toolbars and messed around there with out any success or any more damage.

I do not have a Settings->Hide Location Toolbar item.

The extra tool bar toggles on/off ok,

the bookmark tool bar also toggles ok, but comes up half height.

I am running RH 7.3

I guess that's the one I meant. It has probably just been renamed.
It works for me. Why it doesn't work for you, sorry, no idea.

Did you keep your home directory when you did those reinstalls?
If that's the case:
You could try to remove or rename the config file
.kde/share/apps/konqueror/konqueror.rc

Does that work? If not, try to rename the complete .kde directory
to check whether the problem lies in your local config at all.

(Note: the directory may also be called .kde3 or some such,
depending on your distro)

.kde/share/apps/konqueror/konqueror.rc

That should have been
.kde/share/config/konquerorrc
instead

You may also want to take a look at the content.
There's a section
[KonqMainWindow Toolbar locationToolBar]

I guess that's what controls the location bar. Is there a line like
Hidden=true?
