tab control subform
I want to use a tabcontrol where I show a number of records filtered
per tab page it is meant to be a nicer looking alternative to the plain subform showing records filtered according to the record shown in the parent form since I have few parent records I can get away with the number of tab pages required what would be the nicest and most performant way to do this at the same time? thnx |

tab control subform
If you do this you won't be able to enter or edit your data since 2 or more
different forms will be locking the table. By click on a scroll bar, the next group of records are always displayed. How is that different from clicking on a tab? -- Arvin Meyer, MCP, MVP http://www.datastrat.com http://www.mvps.org/access http://www.accessmvp.com "chriske911" wrote in message ...
