Thanks for your reply, Chip. If I’m understanding you correctly, Tab manager(Tab_Control) does the work of loading related-record data after a record-change button action (next, previous, etc) on an input form, and your experience is that the related data would not load otherwise. Am I getting that correct?
If that’s the case then all I can say is my experience with v12 for a continuous string of years has been different. I’ll go back and recheck form and object methods just to be sure… and report back if I find anything. In any event, thanks for your reply. max > On Jan 16, 2017, at 6:11 AM, Chip Scheide <[email protected]> wrote: > > no this is not the case, in v12 even. > Tab controls are arrays, as such, if you/user selects a tab and you do > not clear/reinitialize the array between record access, then it has the > last selected tab as default. > ex (pseudo code): > > :(on load) > if (size of array(tab_control)=0) > array text(tab_control;5) > list to array("Entry_tab_Titles";Tab_Control) > Tab_Control:=1 > end if > Tab_Manager(tab_Control) // does work to display correct info on tab > page > > then on the second access of the entry form (next/previous record) the > tab control will still have whatever value the user last selected, and > the above code will setup the tab accordingly. > > On Fri, 13 Jan 2017 13:48:41 -0900, Max Morrison wrote: >> >> First, I’d like to verify a possible change in behavior going from >> v12 to v15… It use to be the case that Tab Controls would maintain >> the currently displayed page across new-record load events, on an >> input form.
