Tabs added to a form

I have added tabs to my form but when I drag a control box onto the tab the
control box is outlined but the information is missing in design view. In
Form view nothing at all shows up on the tab. I am very new to Access... is
there some setting or command like "bring to Front" that I'm missing?

Click to expand...

Try cut and paste.

I've noticed that drag and drop method doesn't activate the tab control
you want to drop the object into.

Click on the control you're adding and control X it.
Activate the Tab by clicking on it so it's activated with with black
squares.
Then control V to paste the object into it!

Good Luck,

Jeff

Jeff,
Thanks, that worked. Sorry to bother you with such a simple problem. I'm
teaching myself Access and there's so much to learn.
