disappearing control

hi, im wondering if anyone else has had this problem. Whats going on, is
this: i have a tab control with 8 tab pages, each with about 10 controls.
Once and awhile, my ToolStrips will just randomly disappear from the designer
and runtime. I check the designer code, and the line

Me.tabFiles.Controls.Add(Me.tslFile)

is still there. however, the toolstrip doesnt show at runtime or design
time. if i click on the component picture on the bottom of the screen in
design time, the toolstrip is shown. once i click somewhere else, it
disappears again. this is driving me crazy and i havent found a way to fix
this except make a new toolstrip but then it happens all over again 10
minutes later!
