I have a tabbed form. It has 6 different tabs. I want the user to select from the main menu (button click) and have the appropriate tab open. The tabs are all hidden on form open. How can I do this.

Each page of your Tabbed control has an index number (beginning with zero). Select the page you want to begin with in the Form_Load event like:
Code: 
Me.tabApproach.Pages(1).SetFocus
