    This Control is beyond Screen.Height at design time

    I have an array of 91 small Labels, grouped together in a 9x10 block at design time,
    which are deployed otherwise at runtime.
    But there's a gap: somehow Label #14 has escaped the boundaries of the screen!
    I've used a MsgBox to query where #14 is initially located,
    and it says #14's Top is at 45,545! No, that's not a typo.
    (Screen.Height = 9,216 in this case.)
    Further complication: #14 is AutoSize = True, but I want them all to be AutoSize = False,
    a property that can't be changed at runtime.
    I don't have a clue as to why this happened.
    Is there a way to retrieve #14 or delete it and make a new one?
    (I suppose I could make just the first Label at design time
    and use ReDim to create the others at runtime,
    but the old #14 would still be stranded out there,
    so I would have to change the Name of the array, wouldn't I.)

    You can select it in the IDE from the drop down above the properties window and change the settings in the property pane for it as you wish
    Always use [code][/code] tags when posting code.
