When you use the TabStrip control, the Value property returns the index of the active tab on the TabStrip control. For example, to display the index of the active tab, use the following statement: MsgBox TabStrip1.Value You can also set the Value property to activate a specific tab on the TabStrip control. For example, to make the second tab of a TabStrip control active, use the following statement: TabStrip1.Value = 1 NOTE: On a TabStrip control, the first tab has an index value of zero (0), the second tab has a value of one (1), and so on.
