Select the tab to display when a form opens

tompynation

If we cant hide tabs, is it then possible to declare which tab should be selected when the forms opens?

einsTeIn.NET

No, but you can select a control which is on the tab you want to display.

this doesnt seem to be working for me...

I have 2 tabpages on my Main Form, each tabpage contains a subform...

Inside the subform on the first tab, the user has the opportunity to copy the rec. After the copy the same Main Form is opened again,

But now the second tabpage is selected... while it should be the first one.

I've added this to my OnOpenForm trigger of the main form:

CurrForm.POProductFormuleSub.ACTIVATE;

POProductFormuleSub is the subform on the firsttabpage

Maybe you can use this tip: Opening a form always jumps to the subform control

tompynation

no that doesnt solve it either

I doesn't understand you.

With

CurrForm.YourSubform.ACTIVATE;

you set the focus on your subform (but check also property SaveControlInfo). Whatever in which Tab the control is designd.

well, i have added that code to the Main Form his OnOpenForm trigger,
but it doesnt work when i call the form by using

FORM.RUNMODAL

einsTeIn.NET

It has nothing to do with RUNMODAL. The problem is that the saved control view is applied after your code in OnOpenForm has been executed.

Set property SaveControlInfo to No.

Finally working now \:D/
