ms access 2007 - How do you find out if a control is located on a tab control? -

hopefully should easy, although after searching cant figure out.

how find out if control located on tab?

if ctl.controltype <> 'tab controls' ..... end if

the reason doing have piece of code runs through controls on form, runs problem when cycling through controls on tab.

 if ctl.parent.currentview <> 2             msgbox ctl.name  end if

the above causes error:

error: 348 object doesnt support property or method

obviously appears cant refer current view of tab control

cheers advice 1 has got out there

check ctl before using currentview:

select case ctl.controltype     case accheckbox         ' check box     case actabctl         ' tab control end select
