Vertical Page Tabs
in [Tables]

From: Billiam on 17 Jun 2008 09:35 Is it possible to produce vertical page tabs in Access 2007? I would like my form to appear like a binder with index dividers on the right hand side. Thanks, Billiam

Private Sub cmdPageOne_Click() Me.tabTest.Value = 0 End Sub Private Sub cmdPageTwo_Click() Me.tabTest.Value = 1 End Sub Private Sub cmdPageThree_Click() Me.tabTest.Value = 2 End Sub Note that the pages collection is zero-based, so set the Value property to 0 to display the first page, 1 to display the second page, etc. -- Brendan Reynolds
From: Billiam on 18 Jun 2008 08:07 Hi Brendan, Sorry, I did see another post by you which I had missed before on this topic. I am going to try this out today. I have never done anything like this before as I am new to Access. I promise to rate the response and add anything that might help a newbie like me! Thanks again for your help.
