Refresh dependant on page

[fernandezd]

Hi

I have got a tab control and pages under it.
I have an automated refresh routine setup on the form for all
the list tables under the pages in the tab control.

How do I get it to detect which one is selected and not refresh the list visable??

PLEASE HELP FernandezD

I do something similar. My solution is not elegant but it does work.
For each page in the tab control, I use the OnClick event to set a global variable to the index number of the page.
Example: If I have two pages called Bill and Bob then

public intCurrPgIdx as integer

private sub Bob_Click()
dim intX, intCount as integer
intCurrPgIdx = -1
intCount = ctlMyTab.Pages.Count
for intX = 0 To intCount - 1
if ctlMyTab.Pages(intX).Name = "Bob" then
intCurrPgIdx = intX
end if
next intX
end sub

Similarly for Bill.

You can then use the global variable, intCurrPgIdx, to process your pages.

As I said, it's not elegant. If anyone out there has an alternative, I'd be very interested.

Hope this helps.
