How to: Access a Tab in a TabStrip Control

  • Article

The following example accesses an individual tab of a TabStrip in several ways:

  • Using the Tabs collection with a numeric index.

  • Using the name of the individual Tab.

  • Using the SelectedItem property.

To use this example, copy this sample code to the Script Editor of a form. To run the code you need to open the form so the Open event of the item will activate. Make sure that the form contains a TabStrip named TabStrip1.

Sub Item_Open() 
 Dim TabStrip1 
 Dim TabName 
 
 Set TabStrip1 = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages.Item("P.2").Controls("TabStrip1") 
 For i = 0 To TabStrip1.Count - 1 
 'Using index (numeric or string) 
 MsgBox "TabStrip1.Tabs(i).Caption = " & TabStrip1.Tabs(i).Caption 
 MsgBox "TabStrip1.Tabs.Item(i).Caption = " & TabStrip1.Tabs.Item(i).Caption 
 
 'Use Tab object without referring to Tabs collection 
 If i = 0 Then 
 MsgBox "TabStrip1.Tab1. Caption = " & TabStrip1.Tab1.Caption 
 ElseIf i = 1 Then 
 MsgBox "TabStrip1.Tab2. Caption = " & TabStrip1.Tab2.Caption 
 End If 
 
 'Use SelectedItem Property 
 TabStrip1.Value = i 
 MsgBox " TabStrip1.SelectedItem.Caption = " & TabStrip1.SelectedItem.Caption 
 Next 
End Sub
