how to use multiple tab controls, and to be able to call a selected tab control with buttons.
- by mojotaker
Please I am trying to assign each button on the left its own Tab control. That is for example, when the Intake form button is pushed, it will have its own set of tabs (its own tabcontrols)
am i supposed to place multiple tab controls on the artboard, or is there a way to programatically change the names of the tabs, and there contents, when a button is pushed on the left ?
thank you in advance.
