Changes that were made to a Form in Design are not taking effect when running the form

A form was originally designed with tab controls. Then I decided to change the form and remove the tabs, and replace it with panels. I also moved around certain controls and adjusted the placement of some of the controls.

In Design everything looks perfect, but when I run the Form, it shows the old tab control that was completely removed. It runs with the old look, the way it was before I changed things. Why are these changes not taking effect when running the Form? It looks like somewhere in a temp file, there's a snapshot of the old version of the Form that is displaying at runtime. Can you help me find it and solve this strange problem?

    Delete the obj and bin folders as it may be running an old compilation.
