vb.net controls: hi folks.
how do i determine which tab is being displayed??
i cant even find an onclick event so i can set a flag to read later.

i have 6 tabs, and a databound-toolbar for database add-change-delete-save,
and a custom-button added to the toolbar for a search

i want to hide the searchbutton unless i'm on a particular tab, but i cant
see how to do it
i already tried.....
Me.jobsheettabs.TabPages.Item("Jobmanager").Focused but the focus is
lost by the time i click another button

i cant find any other property to read to see if the tab is pressed/visible.



thanks

You can use the tabcontrol's 'SelectedTab' or 'SelectedIndex' properties to
determine the selected tab.
