Regardless of the page you are on when you save it, if you assign a componentID to the Tab Control, the Property ActivePageIndex will select that tab when executed anytime from the OnAfter EEP...
eg: PROPERTY Component_ID_Of_TabControl activepageindex '0' placed in the OnAfterStart EEP will display the first tab of the Tab Control... Reiterating that the ComponentID of the TabControl should be used, NOT the ComponentID of the Page on the TabControl.... ----- Original Message ----- From: "Robert Rugilo" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "RBG7-L Mailing List" <[email protected]> Sent: Thursday, July 28, 2005 7:58 PM Subject: [RBG7-L] - RE: Enhanced Tab Question Just before you save the form, go to the page that should be shown , then save the form.

The problem that I am having is that the forms opens on the last tab that I saved when in define mode. I have an on after start custom action with the following commands PROPERTY main_tab ACTIVEPAGEINDEX '0' PROPERTY start_page0 CAPTION 'New Policy Information' PROPERTY DB_policy_no SET_FOCUS 'TRUE' The caption option works as it should and the form open on the 1st page then the set focus option works. It does not matter how I enter the form it starts on the last tab that I saved the form in the define mode. I have an older version of the form in 7.1 and it works as it should, but since I have made several design changes in 7.5 I can not display the form in 7.1 What am I missing ? TIA Larry
