OK….this control is frustrating me!!

I have 3 tabs, I can add fields on tab 2 and 3 and they are only on 2 and 3. If I put a field on tab 1, it appears on tabs 2 and 3.
What is going on? What am I doing wrong???

UUGGGHHH!

BTW…I am moving fields around not pulling in new fields. I know when I pull in new fields, the tab control turn dark and then I release my mouse and it drops in nicely.

If you drag a control from outside the tab control to a tab page, it will not become part of the tab page, it will float above (or under) the tab page.

To really move a control to a tab page so that it becomes part of it, you must do the following:
– Select the control.
– Press Ctrl+X to cut the control to the clipboard.
– Click on the tab page to select it.
– Press Ctrl+V to paste the control.
– Drag it to the desired position on the tab page.
