Tab Problem?

[Randy]

I have set up a form with tabs. I have all my tabs set up with the
fields and everything is working finee except one thing. Whenever I
open the form the cursor goes to the first field on the first tab which
is fine, but the tab moves up in the form and my tabs disappear from
view. The user then has to scroll up to see the other tabs to click
on.

What can I do to keep the tabs in view all the time so staff don't have
to scroll up?

Sounds like your form window is not tall enought for your TabControl.
Either make the window taller or the TabControl shorter.

Are you using any subforms? This also happens if the subform control on a
TabPgae is not tall enough to show the entire form it is referencing.

Rick I tried enlarging the window and reducing the tab form but that
did not work. It looks like it occurs when the form is just opened and
the cursor jumps to the first field on the tab. I tried raising all
the fields to the top of the tab but that did not work either.
