Using tab control on forms

[smardonl]

Hopefully, this will be a simple question for somebody. I am attempting to create a form with a tab control that has 7 tabs. Obviously, each tab should contain different entry information, but when i place the controls on the first tab, they appear on all tabs. When I try to delete the controls from the other tabs, they delete from the first tab as well. I'm sure this is a simple problem, but I'm at my wits end with it. Any information regarding forms and this problem would be very appreciated.

I seem to remember this happening whenever I would copy other controls from another form.

I think you can still paste the controls as long as you make sure you have the specific page selected (do this by clicking once on the page tab header), not the entire form. Then, without clicking anywhere else (you might select the entire form this way), do a paste.

You also shouldn't have this problem creating new controls on specific tabs. Let me know if that helps or not.

Thanks for responding. I didn't realize that copying would transfer to the other forms. I really appreciate your help in the matter.
