Navigate between subforms in a tab control...

Ok, I've googled, I've searched here, I looked over rogersaccesslibrary, and
I'm just not finding it. I built a dummy just now, main table, two sub
tables. Created the main form, dropped the subforms onto it. Started
tabbing--worked exactly as I wanted, that is, when I tab through subform
without adding a record, focus jumps to the second subform.

Then I cut and paste the subforms onto two pages of a tab control, which
supposedly is "just another control" on the main form, and that's when the
tab order breaks. I tab through the main form, jump to the first tab page,
then into the records, and when I'm done inputting, more tabs just cycle
through blank records in that subform. I click the upper left box on the
main form, check the tab order, and the tab control only shows after the
controls on the main page.

I tried putting a control on the first subform and making it last in that
subform's tab order, so that I could define an event to move focus to the
second subform, but I get an error message that the index has to be only 0 or
1.

I give up, how do I make this work for continous inputting and tabbing?

Looks like my odds of getting an answer to this are better in the forms
subforum (no pun intended).
