Control Alignment in Access 2007

I am having a terrible time moving and re-sizing controls in "Design
View" using the new Access 2007 version.   In older versions of
Access, I could move controls independently of their labels and other
controls by clicking and dragging on a "handle" in the top left
corner.   I do not see a handle in Access 2007, however.   Also when I
re-size one field, it re-sizes them all, and can't find where to
unlink them so that I can format the control separately.

The answer is probably obvious, but I can't seem to find it.

Can anyone help me with this?

Thanks,
Jessi

To unstack the controls:

- Select all controls (Ctrl+A).

- On the Arrange tab of the ribbon, click Remove in the Control Layout
group.
