Support gave me instructions for clearing the settings files for AutoCAD, which got me back to the OOTB state. Next, I followed Matt's instructions (12/30/09 this forum) for creating a profile and using that one instead of using the default ACA profile, so that I only have to switch back to the ACA profile (and repeat the process) each time my tool palettes get corrupted.
Kathy,
You shouldn't have to go back to the ACA profile at all, except in a serious
dire emergency type sitaution.
If you make it a habit to export your personalized profile to an .ARG file
(saved on a server, so it gets backed up), you can simply go into ACA, rename
your current (bad) profile to something else, Import your saved .ARG file, and
set that restored profile Current. You palettes should come back. Then delete
the bad profile.
That allows you to keep your personal profile and tweak it as necessary, instead
of going back to ACA and redoing all of your tweaks from scratch.
