vb.net - tab control? - vb.net

I have a Tab Control on a Winform. I want to add another page but I want it to appear between the current page 1 and page 2, basically I want to insert it. How can I do this?

If you are looking to do this from the deseigner:
Under the TabControl Properties,
select TabPages. This will bring up
the tab pages dialog.
Click the Add button. Should add a
new tab page at the end.
Use the arrows to move the page to
the position required.
If you wish to do this from code:
Have a look at TabControl.TabPages.Insert
Inserts a tab page into the collection
at the specified index.

Is there a way to make a TabControl to be any of its tabs selected?

My client wants to have two separate tab lists on a form, but only one tab can be selected of the two tab lists. Can I create two TabControls to work like this? I.e. when one tab is selected at the first TabControl, the other should have all of their tabs deselected and vica versa.
EDIT:
This is what he imagined:
Based on your image, I believe you should use RadioButtons. That limits selection to only 1 button but you can put them wherever you want. Then you could have a container that populates based on which button is selected.
If I understand you correctly, you can put a tabcontrol(tabcontrol1) on a form. Add a tabpage for each set of pages you want to show.
On each tabpage, in tabcontrol1, add another tabcontrol and add however many pages you want in each.
To restrict access to a particular tab in tabcontrol1 set its enabled property to false;
Basically you'll end up with nested tabpages
Another option would be to create collections of tabpages that you could swap in and out of a single tabcontrol.
One way to get close to what you're pic shows is to use panels and put the tabcontrols inside them.

How to stay at the top of form on form load?

I am facing a problem with multiple forms.
When loaded, it doesn't show the tabs at the top which are part of the form and requires the user to scroll up.
I have done research. It may be related to the .SetFocus property.
Private Sub Form_Load()
Forms!frmEnrolementForm.Tab ("tabCtl0.SetFocus")
End Sub`
As I understand, user doesn't see the top part of window with tabs of tabcontrol. If so, reduce the size of tab control and whole window in order to fit in window on PC with minimal screen resolution. Also you can open desired tab page using code like
Forms!frmEnrolementForm.Page1.SetFocus
Here Page1 - is name of tabpage, not tab control. SetFocus is object method, not property.
It depends on the layout of your form, but you might be able to solve the issue by changing the "Tab Order" settings for the form.
It's under Form design tools > design > Tab Order, and you want the top/first items on your form to be at the top of the list. Ideally I'd say put all the items in a sensible order (e.g. starting with the top left and ending with the bottom right) for a good user experience, but the first item is the one that affects where the form opens.
Mine was opening in the middle of the page because my sub-form was set as the top item in the tab order, but I changed it to a button at the top of my form and now it always opens at the top.
I got this from user NeoPa in this forum answer.

Add global button in CRM

Is there a way to add a new button to ALL PAGES in CRM?
I have tried different ways but in some views, the new button is shown at the end. Im trying to found a way to create a button and place it as first button, to any view, entity and page in CRM. Is this accomplisable?
I'm afraid that out-of-the-box buttons will often take precedence over custom buttons, and the only way to change that would be to hide the out-of-the-box buttons.
I'm assuming you are adding the button via the Application Ribbon, correct? (not every single form and grid)
You can add items to the "Jewel", (the dropdown from "File" in the top left). It's not exactly the same as putting it in the ribbon because you have to make an extra click, but it should show up globally.

Access vba go to next tab in tabbed userform

I created a userform with navigation from access toolbar.
I need to define a button that moves to the next tab in the navigation.
The element that handles tabs is named navigationcontrol.
I read the referance page (https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/ff851947(v=office.14).aspx) few times. I was not able to find a method or property to change the current tab. I example I found on the internet were not working on the new access.
Any help would be appreciated.
You need a couple of information: 1) name of tab control (not name of tab) and 2) value of tab you want selected (fyi - each tab is designated a page index number starting from 0).
Behind your button click event, simply type.
Relative reference:
Me.tabctrlname = integervalueoftab
Absolute reference:
Forms!yourfrmname!tabctrlname = integervalueoftab

Oracle Form Builder: Switching between tabs in a form

i am building a form in oracle forms builder
i have a tabbed canvas
i need to know how to swap to the next tab when a button is pressed
so what do i program into the next-tab button??
Best way normally is to navigate to an item on the new tab page, e.g.
GO_ITEM('BLOCK_NAME.ITEM_NAME');
OR you can make the tab page topmost explicitly:
SET_CANVAS_PROPERTY('CANVAS_NAME', TOPMOST_TAB_PAGE, 'TAB_PAGE_NAME');
