Move existing controls to new tab control

J

jnew

Greetings,

I want to add a new tab control to a form and move some of
the existing controls onto the tab. When I drag the
controls over the tab, however, Access simply moves them
behind the tab control. Is there a trick, or do I have to
re-create the control directly on the tab?

Any help will be appreciated.

Existing controls must be cut n' pasted onto the Tab pages. New controls from the
toolbox can be dragged n' dropped.

And when you paste, remember to select the tab page first so its
selection 'handles' show. Otherwise the pasted control will appear on
all pages.
