Joel- FormSets are evil - run like hell away from them unless you very much enjoy pulling your hair out and drinking heavily.... Besides that - these are two entirely different beasts. Let me see if I remember all of this (haven't done any of this in years)... Think of it this way: A tabbed form is created using a PageFrame A PageFrame is an object on a Form. (grasping top of head) A set of Forms *can* be grouped together to create what is called a FormSet. (reaching for bottle) Control of Formsets is then an exercise in futility - you will never understand where you are or what you are doing, and when the form or control contained on it doesn't work correctly, you will spend HOURS and HOURS trying to track it down, until you give up and disgard the idea of using FormSets in the first place.....
