Tab control - Changing Page

[questionit]

I have a Tab control on my form.

Can anyone guide me how to wirte a little code to switch from one page to another.

We can easily click on Page 1, Page, and so on but i need to create a button on each page to move to the next page.

Can anyone help

Thanks

Just played around and that found this works for the TabStrip control:

Dim WantedIndex As Integer
    WantedIndex = TabStrip.SelectedItem.Index
'Add 1 or subtract 1 from WantedIndex to go forward or behind by one...
    TabStrip.Tabs(WantedIndex).Selected=True
 

You'll then need to call the event which deals with stuff when a user clicks on a tab, because otherwise only the selected tab will change but the visible objects won't.

Hi

Thanks

But my compiler gives me error on these:

SelectedItem
Tabs
These methods dont seems to be available in my version of VB.

Any idea why i get "no Sub or Function not defind" error ?

It says sub/function not defined because of Tabs(WantedIndex). It thinks I'm talking about a sub or a function, which we haven't yet made. I'm actually talking about the array Tabs() which should be part of the TabStrip, but it seems that array doesn't exist either, so...

- What version of VB are you using?
and
- When you click on the tabs object, in the form designer, in ther properties box, does it say "OptionsTab TabStrip"?
(Replacing OptionsTab with whatever you named it)
Or does it not say TabStrip?

Because, I'm using the TabStrip control in VB6.

If it says SSTab, that's the Microsoft Tabbed Dialog Control. That is much easier to set the selected tab of:

YourTabObject.tab = YourObject.tab + 1
'(or -1 to go back by one tab)

I have VB 6.3

There is nothing called TabStrip at all.
Here, VB calls is Tab Control instead

and there is nothing like SSTab

Could you figure out the problem now?

Either I don't have one of the controls in Components which you have (the tab control), or I do and I can't see it when I look for it. >_<

Can you please go to Project -> Components, and on the Controls tab, tell me everything which is ticked?

[questionit]

I dont see Project menu.

I think probably i did not mention to you that i am using Ms Access Form and VB at back-end.

Ah, well in that case I'm sorry, I have no idea how to help, or even what is going on, really. >_<

Can you help me with my other VBA problem :

I have a module called Stack with some code in it.
I have a Form which has some buttons on it.

When i try to compile the module, i get this error:

A module is not a valid type.

and this line is highlighted :
Dim myStack As Stack

any idea?

Nope, because I am really only familiar with VB6, sorry...

Dim myStack As Stack

To do that, Stack would have to be a class, not a code module.

As for your original question, you might get a better response in the Access forum.
