Cannot delete controls on VB.NET 2003 Form when using TabControl

[David]

I have a problem that I cannot delete components that are placed on a
R\abbed page in Visual Basic.Net 2003.

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

Almost everybody in this newsgroup is using VB6 or lower. While you may
get a stray answer to VB.NET (including VB2003 and VB2005 which has
dropped .NET from its name) questions here, you should ask them in
newsgroups devoted exclusively to .NET programming. Look for newsgroups
with either the word "dotnet" or "vsnet" in their name.

For the microsoft news server, try these newsgroups...

microsoft.publi c.dotnet.genera l
microsoft.publi c.dotnet.langua ges.vb
microsoft.publi c.vsnet.general

There are some others, but these should get you started.
