How to find my textBox1 on the DesignForm ?

Question

Hello & Thanks ;

I cant find my textBox1 on the DesignForm anymore .
Somehow it got shoved off the Form1 .
It shows up when I run the programsm but not in Design .
There must be a list Controls screen somewhere .
Pls , what would that be ?
Thanks

Hi Vernon Marsden,
What version of your Visual Studio is and what target framework your project is?
How did you create the textbox control? Please provide more details to reproduce the problem.
And you can try the following suggestion.
You can add another textBox from ToolBox to Form1 and check if it also doesn't show on the DesignForm.
Please try to restart or update your Visual Studio.
Best Regards,
Daniel Zhang

Thanks ;
Win 10 Vs vb.net 2019
When I run the program and stretch the form height , i can see EachSetLine As TextBox at the very bottom .

if you open the form in Designer, go to Properties (press <F4>

In Form1.vb[design] <F4> does nothing .
When I open the Form1Designer.vb , likewise the F4 does nothing .

But here is what i see there:
Friend WithEvents txbAddress As TextBox
Friend WithEvents EachSetLine As TextBox (the culprit)
Friend WithEvents GotoBtn As Button
Friend WithEvents WebBrowser1 As WebBrowser
Friend WithEvents BackBtn As Button
Friend WithEvents ForwardBtn As Button
Friend WithEvents RefreshBtn As Button
Friend WithEvents HomeBtn As Button

If I delete it from here , will it go way ?
And then I recreate in in Design Form .
Thanks
