Looks like I am wrong and you will have to use the CSS to hide the style bar. It does feel a lot like a hack, but it has proven to be one that we have used out of a desire for some practicality in the developement costs.

Bugger!

You can edit the vwstyles.xml file in the 12 hive (C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\12\TEMPLATE\GLOBAL\XML). This controls exactly how the views look. Unfortunately it is very ugly xml to render html.

I recommend you create your own vwstyle in the xml and set the style of the view to use the newly created one.

That's what we did to create the view's style. The 'Sort Bar' remains though.We have removed it by changing the CSS - though this doesent feel the right way to do it.....

Not every feature in SharePoint is modifiable, except by modifying the template itself. That would be overkill, so hiding via CSS is a perfectly good solution to this.
