If I change back to normal editor, everything works fine.

Hello Simo,

Your custom list is probably using a basic html editor. In this case, the RadEditor tries to remove the second toolbar, called EnhancedToolbar, because these tools are not used in basic mode. You probably modified the default list tools file (ListToolsFile.xml) and removed the enhanced toolbar. When the editor tries to remove it now, you get the above error, because it does not exist.  Make sure that you have a toolbar called EnhancedToolbar in your list tools file:

<tools name="EnhancedToolbar">
</tools>

I hope this helps.
