tabstrip

how do you set up a tabstrip?

Why part are you having trouble on?

[kbot]

i know this is going to sound dumb but i've never had a need for a tabstrip before,

how do you set a seperate action/event/function for each tab?

Use the SelectedItem property to check the selected tab.

Private Sub TabStrip1_Click()

    Print TabStrip1.SelectedItem.Index
    
End Sub

Private Sub SSTab1_Click(PreviousTab As Integer)
    
   Select Case PreviousTab
        Case 0
        MsgBox "tab0"
        Case 1
        MsgBox "tab1"
        Case 2
        MsgBox "tab2"
   End Select
   
End Sub

interesting, I get the tab number printing on the side of the form.

Thanks for your reply,

how do I put another control (a text box) to say tab 2?

Private Sub TabStrip1_Click()

    If TabStrip1.SelectedItem.Index = 1 Then
        Text1.Visible = True
    Else
        Text1.Visible = False
    End If
    
End Sub

this
Private Sub SSTab1_Click(PreviousTab As Integer)
Select Case PreviousTab
Case 0
MsgBox "tab0"
Case 1
MsgBox "tab1"
Case 2
MsgBox "tab2"
End Select
gave me an error saying

procedure declaration does not match description of event or procdure having the same name

thanks for your post

Thanks Megatron

If TabStrip1.SelectedItem.Index = 1 Then
Text1.Visible = True
Else
Text1.Visible = False
End If

this is exactly what i was looking for

That's cause I used SSTabControl and not the Windows Tab Control...
Sorry...
