Working with Tab Pages

[aqif]

Hi

I am working ona form which has got two tab pages. I want to ask abt two issues:

1. I want that the font style of the active page should turn BOLD, improving the user visability.

2. Is it possible to give tab page a color. I have given my form white color and set tab page property to transparent. It makes the tab page transparent i.e white but the borders of the pages where tabs are located still remain grey. Is there any way to get around that?

Cheers!

1. Using VBA, set the Font Weight property to Bold for each control that you want to be bold. There is no Font Weight property for tab pages, the the Font Weight property for the entire tab control appears to affect only the tab names.

2. Change the tab control's Style property to None, which will get rid of the tab area altogether. You'll then need to insert your own command buttons (or other controls) to navigate between the tabs, or instruct your users to press Ctrl+Tab or Ctrl+Shift+Tab to navigate.
