how to keep controls from "bleeding through" on tabbed forms 1

I have a problem on tabbed forms, where some controls "bleed through" to appear on every page of the form, while others do not. It seems that unbound controls are particularly prone to this.

In some instances I would like certain controls to be available on each tabbed page, but in others, I want them exclusive to the page where I create them.

Is there some property that controls this? Or is it the case that a certain combination of properties inevitably leads to it? I have instances of controls which do and others which don't, and I cannot discern where the difference lies.
 
You must be certain you have first selected the tab page when placing your control if you want it to be visible only on that tab. If the entire form or the header, footer, or detail section is selected, the control will be visible on all tab pages.
