Ribbon Tab Control

[btsnyder]

Does anyone know if there is any way to control the selected tab on a custom ribbon?

I have a number of forms with their own custom ribbon and when they are closed I would like to be able to set the selected tab on the main access custom ribbon instead of having it default to the first tab.

I have not been able to find any callbacks in any ribbon documentation that would allow me to do this.

Thanks

What's a ribbon? Is this something new to Access 2007? I've never heard of it before.

Yes. It replaces the toolbars and menus, it's unique to Office 2007.

Many people who know and understand Office and Access are avoiding Office 2007 like the plague (due to its being a piece of junk). It's not a problem asking about it by any means, it's just that many of our experts won't know specifics of the new system I'm afraid.
We can still help in 2007, but more where the features are the same as earlier versions.
Ironically, the ribbons are probably one of the few new features that may survive and be considered a positive move.

Good luck anyway :)
