Solved Navigation tabs left side and top side controls

[AngelSpeaks]

How are you coding your top half? Sounds like a good solution to me.

There essentially is no code. I have created an original form off of my table, in this case called frmCoversheet. Then I created an additional form with all the tabs going across it horizontally, in this case called frmInputForms. Then I add frmCoversheet to frmInput as a subform. Then I added frmInput as a subform to frmNavigation. Then I simply adjust the layout how I want. I am certain I might run into some problems as Pat suggested I would once I start making subsequent forms (subforms). But for right now it works really nice for what I am trying to do. I just need to get the form to open on the 2nd tab, on the vertical tabs because I am not using the first tab. I don't like its positioning.

I have attached the parts of the DB I am currently messing around with. But on the form that opens I want it to open on the Input Forms, and that is where I am currently stuck at.

Okay, then since there doesn't seem to be a lot of information on how to do what I was wanting to do I am going to say this is an unsolveable issue.

There’s no need to hide or disable the first button or get the form to open on the second tab.
Tweak the first button's top padding to get the appearance you want (as shown in the sample file of post #14)

If you still want to get the form to open on the "second tab", which is "frmInputForms", just add this to "frmNavigation":

Private Sub Form_Load()
    DoCmd.BrowseTo acBrowseToForm, "frmInputForms", "frmNavigation.NavigationSubform"
End Sub

You might have had better luck inspecting the file that I made for you a few days ago.
