All right I have a pretty dumb question but I cannot figure it out. In VB.NET 2008 Express Edition if you go to the menu item "Format" it allows you to align items like text boxes and buttons horizontally or vertically on a page. I have some how disbled those options. The Format menu is still there and the Align, Make Same Size, stubs are there but when you try to actually align something or make it the same size you cannot do it. Does anyone know how to unlock this? Thanks!

Finally figured it out. It appears to be a bug (thanks MSFT!) If you go to "Tools" then "Customize" and reset your toolbars it enables the menu items again. Thanks for taking a look at this for me though.

As for the multiple objects, that is why it was driving me nuts! I only have two objects on the form and only one was highlighted.
