Tabs, moving controls

[Gary W. Graley]

I have a form that is growing with too many controls, so I want to
make a tabbed form and select and drag controls onto their own
tabs to make things more organized.
BUT, as I do the copy and paste thing, it doesn't copy the command
behind the buttons?

So far it looks like I'd have to recreate each control button directly
on the tab pages themselves?

Thanks in advance,
G2

Two options that I can think of...

1) Use macros instead of code. [Cough/sputter/ack...] Excuse me while I go wash my mouth out with soap.


2) After you have pasted the controls, go each of the controls' properties. Access the events....the code will magically re-appear....unless you renamed the controls.

I assume you meant cut/paste, not copy/paste.

Yep, meant cut and paste, I'll give that a try, thanks!

And yep, that works! Thanks very much, and I found that I could select multiple buttons and set them to event control and they magically reappear, a lot handier than I was trying to do, now I can throw all of those buttons on pages that have a more ligical order to them.
Thanks again,
