VB 2008 :: Identify TabPage Selected

FYI . . . I am currently doing this but it doesn't like the check for the tab name in the case statement . . .
<code>
Private Sub tabNmsXRef_Selected(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.TabControlEventArgs) Handles tabNmsXRef.Selected
Dim ThisPage As TabPage = tabNmsXRef.SelectedTab
Select Case ThisPage
Case ThisPage.Name.Equals("tabMfrXRefAdd")
End Select
End Sub
</code>
The error the "case" line is giving is . . .
"Operator '=' is not defined for types 'TabPage' and 'Boolean'.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.
Stay Cool Ya'll!![[smile2]](/data/assets/smilies/smile2.gif "[smile2] [smile2]")

If you want to find out which tab gets selected, you can use the Selected event of the tab control and investigate the TabPageIndex of the TabControlEventArgs passed to the event.
If you just want to know which page is currently selected you can use the SelectedIndex property of the TabControl.
Hope this helps

Never mind . . . Got it to work like this . . .
Private Sub tabNmsXRef_Selected(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.TabControlEventArgs) Handles tabNmsXRef.Selected
Dim ThisPage As TabPage = tabNmsXRef.SelectedTab
Select Case True
Case ThisPage.Name.Equals("tabMfrXRefAdd")
End Select
End Sub
