Once the control is in your form, you can modify any of its properties or simply leave it as it was. Any modifications you make apply only to the form you’re working on and will not affect the version of the control that's inside the Custom tab or other forms where you also used this custom control. To delete any control from the Custom tab, simply click the icon.
