Move controls in dialog area

A

Alain Dekker

Hi,

Bit of a newbie to VB.NET. I'm using 2003.NET. I have a project with a
number of controls, but I cannot move the controls around at design time
using the Up/Down/Left/Right cursor keys. I can drag the controls around
with the mouse only. What's going on here? I was sure I could do this in
VS2003.NET with my VC++ projects, but now I've even opened up one of those
projects and still cannot. Seems like I've changed some setting that I
cannot find.

I've tried (with control I want to move selected):
* Pressing arrow key
* Pressing arrow key + LEFT_SHIFT
* Pressing arrow key + LEFT_CTRL
* Pressing arrow key + LEFT_ALT
(and all combinations of above).

Control won't budge!

Thanks,
Alain
