select tab/page in vb

I have a form with multiple tabs(pages). on a certain condition, I
want to programatically switch to a different tab(page). I tried
formname.pagename.setfocus and that didn't seem to work. Any
suggestions?

thanks

me.controlname.setfocus

if the control you are setting the focus to is on another
page, it will change automatically

Given: a form called frmMain containing a tab control called tabMain whose
first page is called pgName, the following 2 statements are equivalent, and
will display the specified page:

frmMain.tabMain.Pages("pgName").SetFocus
or
frmMain.tabMain.Pages(0).SetFocus


similarly,
Me.tabMain.Pages(Me.tabMain.Value).Name
would return the name of the currently displayed page

HTH,
