Tab control problems

I am creating a form that has 2 tabs on it, one for entering packing data,
the other for entering nutritional data. I now want to divide up the fields
from my database onto the 2 tabs, some fields are for one, some are for the
other. I have gotten a lot of the fields in the right place and everything
looked good, but then all of a sudden certain of the controls were appearing
on BOTH tabs, and when I would delete it from one tab, it would be deleted
from the form completely. This is probably something extremely simple, but I
am just not seeing it.

Thanks in advance for the help.
 
Yeah, I found that if I haven't hilighted the actual tab where I want the
control to be placed before I drag the control onto it, that it gets placed
on TOP of the tabs. But it looks like it's actually a member of both tabs. If
the tab has been correctly hilighted, that tab will darken when the new
control passes over the top of it.
 
Thanks a lot! I cannot check it out now, but when I get back home, that is
one of the first things that I will try.

You can only drag and drop NEW controls onto TabPages. For existing controls
you must Cut them to the clipboard, select the desired page, then Paste.
