Default tab control scrolling

I inherited an access form with a tab control with six tabs. When the user
navigates from one tab to the next, the scroll bar position is in the middle
and the tabs on the top of the tab control can not be seen unless the user
scrolls up. Is there a method to automatically scroll to the top of the tab
change event?

Default tab control scrolling

Using the OnChange event of the Tabbed Control you'll need to set focus to
the top/leftmost control on any given Page.

Having said that, I have to say, IMHO, that having forms long enough to
require scrolling up and down to see all content is very user-non-friendly.
You really ought to consider using more tabbed pages and expanding laterally.
