This is sort of a silly question, but I have a couple of text boxes in my mdiFrom that disappeared somewhere. Since I can't see them anywhere, I am unable to delete them by clicking on them and hit "delete". Is there some way to remove these unused controls that are hiding?
 
Not sure if this helps, but I had a control that kept disappearing when I used Unload on a form.
 

Set their lefts and tops to zero(0) and then select them and delete.

Have you read FAQ222-2244 yet?

Good Luck

 
Drop down the combo at the top of the properties window on the right of your IDE and select the control. Then delete it from the container on the form.

Iliemoo, have you read FAQ222-2244 yet? Did any of our suggestions help?

Good Luck
