Missing Configuration Manager in Visual Studio Toolbar?

Hi,

I'm building a Windows application using Visual Studio 2005. For some
reason, the Configuration Manager is missing from my Toolbar. So now in order
to change my build mode (eg. Debug, Release), I have to go "Build" >
"Configuration Manager...".

Does anyone know how I can put the Configuration Manager back on to the
Toolbar?

For your information, I've already checked the option "Show advanced build
configurations" under "Tools" > "Options" > "Projects and Solutions" >
"General"...

Go to Tools | Import Export Settings and reset your settings to General
Development Settings.

I don't know why the VS IDE Team instituted this "nerdy" Dilbert way of
changing UI settings en-masse instead of a nice drop down that easily and
QUICKLY lets you change UI views. Sometimes I think the guys who worked on
the VS2005 IDE were interns.

Ha! That's funny.
