    Resolved SSTab - which tab is selected? *RESOLVED*

    I know how to get the tab index using the SSTab1_Click function but can't use that here so I need to know which tab the user selected using a command button. In other words something like this (this example doesn't work of course) It has 10 tabs on it. Thanks

    Private Sub Command1_Click()
    MsgBox SSTab1.TabIndex 'which tab is selected
    End Sub

    I saw this posted at PSC: http://www.planetsourcecode.com/vb/s...56301&lngWId=1

    It shows how to dynamically add stuff to SSTab, but it also shows you how to find out the selected tab

    (well, atleast seems so)

    Just read Tab property:
    VB Code:
    1. Private Sub Command1_Click()
    2.     MsgBox "Current Tab is " & SSTab1.Tab
    3. End Sub

    Are you sure? It would be the exact same code that you would put in the Command_Click event.

    TabIndex has nothing to do with which tab is current. Almost all controls have a TabIndex property. VB uses the TabIndex when navigating through the form using the Tab key.

    I think he meant Index for currently selected Tab which is Tab property for SSTab control.

    ... and don't forget to add "RESOLVED" to your original post's title.
