Can't delete controls on Tabbed page. VB.NET

I have a problem that I cannot delete components that are placed on a
Tabbed page in Visual Basic.Net 2003. (OS = Windows 2000 Professional)

The form uses a Tab Control with several pages. I have a Panel on the page
and then some combo boxes, labels and text boxes.
For some reason, I cannot delete any of these controls from the form (not
even the Tab control istelf).
The Delete and Cut options in the right click menu have been ghosted out as
is the options from Edit menu.

Anyone please know what is going on and how I can fix it ?

Thanks

David,

Please don't multipost, you can crosspost as much as you wish sending one
message at once to more (relevant) newsgroups.

Do I understand that are on your component some controls, which you want to
delete when they are added to a form?

That would be normal that you cannot delete them than.

Cor,

What do you mean by multipost ? I selected this group and used "NEW POST"

I have always been able to delete controls from forms during design. If not
it would be like a word processor with no back key.

To reiterate:

I am designing a form in VB.net. I have placed a Tab Control and some text
boxes etc on a TAB PAGE.
I want to remove one of the text boxes from the tab page but cannot do this.

If I create a project and don't use a TAB control, I can place controls on
the page and remove them as I wish during design. But not if I place them on
a TAB page.

David,

Sorry, I thought I saw almost the same question in the language.vb
newsgroup, and thought you asked it however probably someone else.
To reiterate:

I am designing a form in VB.net. I have placed a Tab Control and some text
boxes etc on a TAB PAGE.
I want to remove one of the text boxes from the tab page but cannot do
this.

If I create a project and don't use a TAB control, I can place controls on
the page and remove them as I wish during design. But not if I place them
on
a TAB page.
What is the meaning of this in your previous message.

It can just be that you call a control a component what makes the confusion.

I never heard that somebody could not delete a control he draged on his
tabpage, while he could do it on a form when the "lock controls" on that
tabpage was not set.

I hope this helps anyway
