Pasting Into Tab Page

G

Guest

I have created a set of controls on a tab page. I now would like to copy and
paste these controls onto the other 40 pages of the tab control, keeping
their spacing and alignment intact when I do so. However, I'm finding I can
copy and paste some controls without problems, while others find a place of
their own and resize the form. I've even tried grouping them. If this is
possible, please tell me how to select and copy all the controls on one tab
page and paste them intact on the rest. (I will go through after the paste
and set each controls source appropriately)

Thanks.

I may be reading too much into your description...

It sounds like you could have an underlying table with a LOT of fields, and
that you are trying to put what amounts to repeating groups onto a VERY
large tab control, one group per tab.

If this is your situation, you have a data structure that is very good ...
if it were a spreadsheet! In Access, this data structure causes both you
and Access severe headaches, and prevents you from using the strengths and
functionality that's built into the relational database.

Would you be willing to post back a brief description of your underlying
data structure that you are attempting to stuff into a tab control with over
40 pages?

Or did I read too much into it...?
