Combo box 'visible' property setting doesn't take

I've got three combo boxes on a worksheet that are very similar, but when I right click->properties and change the "visible" property to 'false' on all three combo boxes, only two become invisible on exiting design mode. The third won't go away.

I have the same problem with command buttons. I've got 3, and the 'visible' property works on two, but not the third.

I suspect this is easy, but I can't isolate the difference. I have printed and read and reread the properties' sheets, and I can't see the difference.

Since the first two work, I don't think I need to use VBA to make the combo boxes visible / not visible.

I've been Googling this, but haven't found any explanation as to what to do when the 'visible' property = false, but the combo box still displays anyway.

Thanks very much
