Tab control: how to make a page not clickable

[halx]

Hello,

I have a tab control in a form, with several pages (tabs).
Is it possible to make a tab not clickable (and grey)?
"pageName.enable = FALSE" still allows the user to click on the tab (but the commands inside are disabled)

Thanks

Alex

I havent tried this, but you could either set the tabname.visible=false (dont know if that is allowed) or in the onclick for the tab, create a bit of code that redirects them:

tab_onclick
if me.tab.enabled=false then
me.othercontrol.setfocus
end if

I did actually have this thing working...the naming convention for the tab is odd - I think you have to pass a reference for the clicked tab to the code, and check the .enabled against this, but I did get it working. My problem was where to logically re-direct them to...in the end I took it off, and told them that if all the controls for the tab were disabled, they could ignore it!

Ah...user training...the replacement for bulletproof coding!
