Why does the tab control "OnClick" Event not fire when a tab is clicked?

Asked by CyprexxDev in Access Forms, Microsoft Access Database

Tags: tab, event, control, click

I know what is going on here, I just wanted an explanation why?  I know the way it works is if a tab is clicked, the user has to actually click on the actual page, not just the tab, for the event to be fired.  Why has Microsoft done this?  This seems to defeat the whole purpose of having an onclick event.  I already have the solution - to do an onchange event for the whole tab control and use a Case statement to determine which tab was selected, but this is more work for a task that should be so simple.  Anyone have an answer to this?Start Free Trial
