    multipage tabindex

    One more question on multipage forms. I have a 4 page multipage form. I
    have a change event where I set the tabindex on every control on each page.
    This works great except that with one exception. After it tabs through all
    of the controls, it tabs to the page name. Is there a way to prevent it from
    doing this? I just want it to tab through the controls and not the actual
    page tab as well.

    Thanks again for all of the help............

    Hello JT,

    The MulitPage control class doesn't expose the TabIndex property for a given Page in VBA. So you can't avoid tabbing back to the Page name.

    Sincerely,

    If you aren't going to use the tabs (an assumption), why not make them
    disappear.

    Multipage1.Style = fmTabStyleNone

    Hiding the tabs would defeat the purpose of the control being a Multi-Tab, would it not?

    Re: multipage tabindex

    If the purpose is to have the user make the selection of which page is
    visible, then yes. But there are many other purposes for a multitab. If
    movement between tabs (such as a wizard) is controlled by code, then hiding
    the tabs may be a plus.
