Move to specific tab page based on user selection from combo box

Here is a shot program I put together to show you have to do thins.

        MyBase.New()

        'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
        InitializeComponent()

        'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call

    End Sub

    'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
    Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
        If disposing Then
            If Not (components Is Nothing) Then
                components.Dispose()
            End If
        End If
        MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
    End Sub

    Private components As System.ComponentModel.IContainer

    'It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer.

Hello Fernando, thanks for the quick reply. Is there a way to do this when the tab page text doesn't match the selection? Could I use the index of the tab control page?

Works Perfectly! Thanks Fernando.

Glad I could help.
