I am trying to add a field to a tab control page but each time I drag it to
the page it adds it to the other pages of the tab control also. I know I had
this problem before, but I don't remember what I am doing wrong.

Your help is appreciates.
 
Hi,

The only time that you can drag a field to a tab control page (that I know
of) is when you are adding a new field to the form. If you want to relocate
a field that is already on the form, you have to cut/paste, and when you
paste you need to have the tab of the page that you want to put the control
on selected.

In your case, by just dragging the control to the page, Access wasn't
actually putting the control on all pages. In fact, it is the opposite. The
control was not on any page, it was just sitting in front of the tab control
object (so it would show up no matter which tab page was selected).

HTH, Ted Allen
