Tab Control as a argument

[questionit]

How would i pass the TabControl to a function?

I have a function:

Public Function processCount(ctrlName As TabControl) As Integer
....
 

Call :

processCount( 'I want to pass the Tab Control Name i am interested in')
 

I cant pass it as a String - i get type mismatch error obviously.

I have also tried:

processCount( TabCt1.Name = [Page 2])
 

But then i get compile error within the function :
"Method or data member not found"

when i do this

For Each Ctrl In pageName.Controls
 

Help please?

Questionit, you've once again posted a question on the Access Articles section! I'll move it over to the Access Forum for you, but please be more careful in the future. Aside from the fact that you're making extra work for the moderators, posting a question to the Articles section means that it's not being seen by most of the members and hence decreasing the chance that you'll get a timely response.

TabControl and Page are two different things. You're currently trying to pass a page in as a TabControl.

So you can either pass in a tab control to your current function and manipulate the pages through the page index property of the tab control. Your tab control is probably called something like Me.TabCtl0 on your form.

So that would be something like:

Dim intx as Integer
 
intx = processCount(Me.TabCtl0)
 

Or you can change the Function to take in a page instead of a tabcontrol

Public Function processCount(ctrl as Page) As Integer
End Function
 
'call it
intx = processCount(Me.Page2)
