Tabstrip on a form

9 New Member
Hi,

I am pretty new to access and have created a booking database. I have a form, which has a tabstrip on that contains all the details about a person on one page of the tabstrip and all the bookings they have on another page.

I have another form where the user selects the person whose details they would like to see, then the form with the tabstrip on is displayed, and linked to the previous form but the PersonID.

However, if the person in question has not made any bookings, then the tabstrip is not visible.

How can I solve this?

Thanks in advance.

Put a command button on the form to open a form to allow bookings to be made then requery the first form.

I'm not quite sure what you mean.

On the form with my tabstrips, I have a tab that enables the user to add bookings to each person stored in the database. So should I create a new form to make these bookings and take it off the tabstrip?

What do you mean by a tab/tabstrip?

So have you just added the fields to the tab page without putting them on a subform. Or are the bookings on a subform on the tab page. All a tab is is a page i.e. Each tab is a different page on the same record. This doesn't explain how your bookings are working. For instance if you have more than one booking how is that being represented on the page.

Ahh sorry.

I am using my tabs to display all the data about 1 person at a time, so 1 tab has the personaly details about the person, the next has a subform on that shows all the sessions that the person is booked in for and I have a another tab to add new sessions for the person.

Would it be easier to create a seperate form to add sessions for each person?

Yes, instead of the third tab to add new sessions have that on a separate form. Add a command button to the second tab under the subform to open this new form and in the Close event of the new form add the code to requery the subform.

The add session part of my database now works just as I would like it to! So many thanks for your help there.

However, I still have the problem that my tab control is only visible if there is any data present on the subform that one page of it contains, even though the first tab always has data present. Do you have any ideas as to how to solve this?

Thanks.

I don't know why this is happening. It is not usual behaviour.

Hello I've been using the tabstrip and multipage controls and really like the way this combination allows users to switch between tabs without a postback. I'd like to get more detailed information about these controls but can only find basic information on the internet. In particular, I'd like to hide or disable tabs dynamically and I'm not sure how to do this. I'd appreciate any examples or insight.
