    my tab is losing focusing

    ok. i dont really know to explain this as clearly as possible so here goes.

    i have a form, it has two tabs, tab1 and tab2, both tabs have subforms in them that also contains tabs. now here's my dilemma, everytime i exit out of design view, or click on one of the main tabs, my view of the form automatically changes to what i believe is the subform getting focus. so basically, instead of the scroll bar all the way to the top, for some reason, it shows the subform meaning the tab of the subform is what is on top of the window hence hiding the mainform's tabs.

    help me.

    Hi. This most likely means that when you placed the subform onto your form it was placed on top of the tab control itself, not the page of the tab control where you wanted it to be placed. This should be easily curable. Select the subform control, right-click and select Cut to remove the control. Select the relevant tab page in your tab control to select that page in design mode, then right-click and select paste. This will paste your just-cut subform back, but onto the page of the tab control instead of overlaying the tab control itself.
