Tab Control and navigation buttons

I want to add navigation buttons to a tabcontrol (somewhat like excel)
How do I get the "tabs" to offset to the right so that I can draw the
buttons on the left?

TIA

It does in an indirect way.
You'll have to Hide the TabItems (An Alternative approach to TabPage
Navigation).
Add a second TabControl which is only the height of it's Tabitems and
position it directly above the main TabControl with an offset to allow your
Navigation buttons to be placed on the left.
Code the OnSelectedIndex Changed() event of the second TabControl to change
the TabPages of the first.
Alternatively, use a collection of buttons or a custom Toolbar for
navigation.

I have an AccessXP(A2000 mode) customer who says on one form the navigation buttons do nothing when he clicks on any of the 5 but the navigation buttons work on other forms. In my copy of the database the navigation buttons work fine in the problem form. I have confidence in what he is telling me! Because of distance, I can not go on site. Does any one have any thoughts on this? Thanks! Steve PC Datasheet

My Access DB has a main data entry form. There are so many fields on the form that I've added a vertical scroll bar.

To view the top of the form, I now have to scroll up. What I want to have happen is this: I click on the navigation...

Afternoon Is it possible to display test alongside the Navigation Buttons in an MS Access form? I have a complex form containing a number of subforms where the Navigation Buttons are relatively adjacent. Users are getting confused as to which Navigation Button they are selecting, so adjacent text would help.

For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
