Hi: Wll, in VWD I managed to duplicate your situation. If the control is embedded inside another html control like a pannel, perhaps others like divs or tables not sure, it does not seem to appear in the Ctrl+F2 list of objects on the page. So, in the html editor, highlight the first few characters of the button tag, <asp:button... then hit f7 I think it is, until you get to the forms designer and then either hit f4 or select properties from under the view menu to bring up the properties window. If the button is not selected tab to the dropdown box that lists controls on the page and cursor to the button and hit enter on it. Tab back and verify it is now selected, tab back to the tool bar, right arrow to the events button and pick an event. Try this method. You might try going into the code editor, not the html editor, and using cytrl+F2, I am not sure about that I just thought of it and will check it out but try the above method.

Well, I'm making some progress. I've done as some of you have suggested and am working in the html editor, not messing with the forms designer at all. HOwever, now I've discovered another problem. I've added a button to a page, and the button shows up when I run the program. I even get a navigation sound when I press enter on the button. However, I see no way to select an event to code for it. Placing my cursor on the tag and pressing f4 brings me into the property window, but the events tab is not active or invisible. Pressing f2 gives me a list of objects like form1, window, client script, etc. But none of my controls are in the list, including my button which is called btnAdd. Any hints?
