ADO and Tabstrips

I am trying to make a simple GUI that would allow data manipulation for a multi-table database. The GUI has tabstrips on it, each one representing a different table in the database. Rather than creat a separate text box and lable for each field, I would like to use the DED. The problem is that, even after I've created the propper connection and I can see the fields that I need, when I drag the fields from the DED to the form, the text box wont "sit" on the tabstrip and the label simply goes behind the tabstrip.
What am I doing wrong? Can you use ADO bound fields and a tabstrip? Is there a simplier way of doing things.

Thanks,
