tab control - keeping at top of page

C

Cheryl

Hi - I am sure I have seen this posted before but couldn't
find it. I am using the tab control to allow users to
access four different forms. When they switch between
forms it drops down to the beginning of the form rather
than showing the tabs along the top. I believe there is a
way to stop this from happening (something about focus?)

Thanks for your help

Is there a chance your form's dimensions are larger than the screen? I've
seen the behavior you describe when there's more to show than room to show
it. One solution is to reduce the form size.

If you want to set the focus to a control, you can use the:

Me!MyControlName.SetFocus

command in the OnExit or AfterUpdate event procedure of a control further
down the "page".
