I have two labels inside a frame but they are only visible at runtime if the frame's visible property is set to false. Both the labels are not visible at design time whether the frame is visible or not. Why is this? Is there a way out of this?

Thanks
Simon

The labels aren't placed in the frame, they are placed on the form. Make sure to drag them from the toolbox to the frame.
You can also use ctrl-x crtl-v to cut-paste them. When pasting, make sure the frame is selected.
If they are in the frame, you shouldn't be able to move them anywhere outside the frame, so you can use that as a check, and if you move the frame, the labels should move along.

Thanks! for that quick reply. It works.

PS: Labels are not in the frame but inside the frame within its boundary.
