Grid not showing up over TABS!

[barant]

Hi, I am building a project in VB for windows CE and when I have a tabstrip and drop a grid on it, the first time i run it the grid is over the tabstrip. If I save the project and run it, the grid goes behind the tabstrip! I even deleted the grid and put a frame with a textbox over the strip and the same thing happened, so I dont think that it is because its a Datagrid. I read that you can put a picturebox as a container for a grid, but with windows CE, you can not. I dont know what to do.... I need the tabstrip, but anything I drop over it disappears as soon as I save and re-open the project. Please help

Why not use the tab control SSTab. Much easier to use, although I have found it best to put all releveant page controls in a frame, otherwise if you play around with the tab control dimensions, the controls tend to move all over the place.

Try the following:
1. Locate your grid in the properties pane and select it.
2. Click Format/Order/Bring to front in upper pane menu.

It is better to put a frame at each tab first. The frames will be containers. You can bring them to front using the same technique.

hi guys, thanks for the help. Even when i brought it to front, it didnt fix it. what fixed it was:

object.frame.zorder(0)
