pictures on form with tabs

[NAS]

I have a form that has about 6 tabs. I need to put a different picture on
each tab. It is a floor plan of our office building. The issue I am having is
every time I try to insert a picture into the 2nd tab, it pastes it onto the
first tab as well, over the first picture. How can I avoid this? We use
Access 2003 on Windows XP.

NAS,
Pictures controls (and any controls) on tab pages must be pasted on to
the "selected" tab page.
Copy the picture control (Ctrl-Ins), then select the particular tab
page,
and then Paste (Shft-Ins) the picture onto the selected tab page.
Exception: Fields from the Field List can be "dragged" onto the selected
tab page, but as in all cases, the page must be selected first.

If you simply drag a control to the tab object, without a particular tab
page
selected, it will really install onto the main form, and will show through
all
tabs... your current condition.

When in doubt... cut and paste to your selected tab pages.
