Skipping to next record, not next page

G

Guest

I have a form with several tabs (about 6).
When I am done entering info on the first page (first tab) I want it to skip
to the first control on the next page (second tab).
I just can't figure it out.

Thanks in advance for your help

Access doesn't have a graceful way to handle moving from TabPage to TabPage.
Here is what I usually do.

Add a TextBox on the TabPage and make it last in the TabOrder. In its GotFocus
event have code that sets focus to the desired control on the next TabPage. You
can set the width and height of the TextBox to zero so this control is
effectively invisible, but you can't actually set the visible property to false.
