I'm using tab control on my form. When I add a field, it adds it to every tab? How can I make it only show on one tab?

Thanks...

click first on the tab.
drag the field, if the area you are about
to drop turns black, you're in correct tab.

That did it! Strange it does not work when you double click on the field and it places the field. It does not turn black but does when you drag it. Strange...

Thanks!!!

Not strange at all. The Access interface needs to support BOTH options and they obviously need to work differently:
- visible on ALL tabs
- visible on only this tab

Just to be perfectly clear it is not really "visible on all tabs", it is positioned in front of the tab control giving the illusion it is on all tabs. So you can embed it into a page or "float" a control in front of the tab control.
