Using the Value Property with the TabStrip Control

This includes, but is not limited to, the implied warranties of merchantability or fitness for a particular purpose. This article assumes that you are familiar with the programming language that is being demonstrated and with the tools that are used to create and to debug procedures. Microsoft support engineers can help explain the functionality of a particular procedure, but they will not modify these examples to provide added functionality or construct procedures to meet your specific requirements. 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.
