I am looking for some coding assistance. I have a tab control called "Master
Tab" with 3 tabs on it called "Type" "CIP" and "Vacuum".

When I load the tab control form I want "CIP" and "Vacuum" to be hidden -
only "Type" should be showing.

Then when I want to go to the "CIP" tab, I would like to create an event that
hides the "Type" form and makes the "CIP" form visible.

Any ideas?

Thanks, Zag
 
Zag,

First to have any tabl hidden at startup, in design mode, set the Visible
property of the tab you want hidden to false.

Then to show a tab you can use one of two methods to show a specific tab:

If you have a command button that you want to have the user click to show
the CIP tab, just put the followin code in the On Click event of that command
button:

Me.TabCtl0.Pages("Page2").Visible = False
The line above uses the name of the tab control: "TabCtl0" and then
references the name of a specific page "Pages("Page2")". Each of the pages of
your tab control has a Name. Then specifies the visible status.

You can also use:
Me.TabCtl0.Pages(1).Visible = True
The line above uses the name of the tab control: "TabCtl0" and then
references the "Page Indes" of the page. This numbering sequence is a zero
based numbering.

The values that you are providing for each tab are only Captions. You must
refernece either the Page Name or the Page Index.
 
Thanks!
