TabStrip control

[Warrio]

Hello!

How is it possible to modify by code the current tab index on a tabstrip
control?

to see the current tab selected, I use
myTabStrip.SelectedItem.Index
but this property is read only.

Thanks for any suggestion

Hi:

Use the Value property.

This would activate second tab.

Me.TabCtl2.Value = 1

Hi Naresh, thanks for your quick response,

but the tab I'm using is an ActiveX called TabStrip which behaves
differently than the regular tab control..
and when I try

myTabStrip.Value = 1

Access displays the following error
"The setting you entered isn't valid for this property"

Thanks again

It's strange, but the same statment works in perfectly in Excel, but in
Access
I can't even write

MsgBox myTabStrip.Value!!

Try...

myTabStrip.Object.Value = 1

Sometimes Access gets confused with properties in ActiveX objects that have
the same name as standard Access objects.

Nice try, but it says that "Object doesn't support this property or method"!
