Tabbook?

Post by Kenley » Tue Jan 02, 2007 6:06 am

I am very excited about the new tabbed dialog in version 9; however, the help doesn't contain much info on how to use it.
Does a sample exist for a tabbed dialog of two or three tabs where clicking on one shows objects in that tab/page and not the others?

Thanks! :)

Use the dialog designer.

1. Pop a tabbook onto your form.
2. Right click and select "Add Page"
3. Drop a button or two onto the page.
4. Right click on tabbook and select "Add Page"
5. Right click on tabbook and select "Next Page"
6. Drop a button or two onto the page
.. etc

Right click on tabbook and choose "Next Page" or "Previous Page" to cycle through pages. When you click in a page you select that Page. To select the entire Tabbook click on the tabs themselves.
