I do not know why your form is doing what it is doing without seeing it. If you have Access97 and can zip it up, you can email it to me and I will take a look. No guarantees that I can figure out what is going on, but I will give it a shot.

I would guess that the tab control is just a little too large to fit in the size window you have created. Either make the form larger or the control smaller. Save the form and test until the problem goes away.
