Events on a tab control 1

[GBall]

It's late and I guess I've lost it, but I can see events on a selected tab page and I have entered code to act on the event, but the event does not appear to be firing.
All I want to do is set some values when a tab is selected (clicked).
Someone pleae put me out of my misery ?

TIA

I have had the same problem. I find that setting the OnClick event property applies to the body of the page on the tab. Not the section that has the caption/name of the tab. ljprodev@yahoo.com

Hiya!

I think you should have your code in the On Change event of the Tab Control itself, not on one of the pages. Then when you click a different tab from the one you're on, the event will fire....

Private Sub MyTabCtl_Change()
MsgBox "Tab Changed", vbOKOnly
End Sub

Dude, I think you have it. I looked at the OnChange as the data having to change. But this works. Thanks. ljprodev@yahoo.com

Yeh,
I guess that's the way to go.
At least I'm not being too stupid - just another Access 'featurette' !!

cheers,
