SSTab.Tab [Resolved]

[cfisher]

I'm trying to use the SSTab controls on a screen and want to trigger some events based on the tab that is selected. My problem is that when I try to use SSTab.Tab, my system reports that the method or data member is not found for the .Tab event. Any ideas ?

Thanks

Please show the code that you are using.

Pretty simple code.

If SSTab.Tab = 1 then
MsgBox "Tab one clicked"
End if

Using this and do a run with full compile, I get the error of the data member or object not found. It's been added to my project as a Microsoft Tabbed Dialog control 6.0 SP5

Did u check if the control name is SSTab or SSTab1 or something else...

OK let's get some basic stuff out of the way.

Is your control actually named ssTab? The default wopuld be ssTab1.

Is the code you show on the form where you have the control?

I re-named the default from SSTab1 to SSTab as indicated in my code (I even tried on another form just leaving it as a default SSTab1 but had the same problem) and the code does exist on the form. When I try to use SSTab.??? I only get the option for Count,Item,LBound and UBound. It's almost like part of the OCX file did not load (or I'm missing another reference). I've added many other controls to different project, but have never had this problem.

[MartinLiss]

You have the Index property set to 0 (or some other value) so it thinks it's a control array.

[cfisher]

Perfect. That's exactly what the problem was. Many thanks, I would have been looking for quite a while before coming up with that.

You're welcome.

BTW I edited your original post to add "Resolved" to the thread.
