Calling a Tab from a Detail View
Posted: 06 Jun 08 3:54 AM

Hi All,
Can't see how this can be done, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
Scenario.
In the “Account Detail View”, I have a button, when I press that I want to set the active tab to “Contacts” and I want to pass a variable to the Contacts tab and run a sub.
Any ideas or pointers?
Many Thanks
Duncan

Duncan, you can use the Application.basicfunctions.SetTabVisibleProperty "Contact", True
Not sure by what you mean by the 2nd part but you can do this on a new view as you've probably seen :
Dim objMainView, objDetail
Set objMainView = Application.MainViews.Add("family:view", 0, False) 'DNL
Set objDetail = objMainView.DetailsView
objDetail.Script.Init - you're stuff
If objMainView.ShowModal = mrOK Then
End If
Set objDetail = Nothing
Set objMainView = Nothing
But this requires the view to be invoked.
You might be able to rattle through the active forms (that are loaded, as this one will now be) and run the script that way?
For i = 0 To Application.Forms.Count - 1
If Application.Forms.Item(i).Name = "YourForm" Then
Application.Forms.Item(i).Script.Init - your stuff
Exit For
End If
Next
Although, I've never tried it !

Thanks Mike, it’s been a while since I've done any Thick Client Work, I'll give this a go and let you know how I get on.

Thanks Mike, in the end I did the following;
On the detail view I added the following code on button click
------
Application.basicfunctions.SetTabVisibleProperty "Account:E1-Account-Contacts", False
Application.basicfunctions.SetTabVisibleProperty "Account:E1-Account-Contacts", True
------
I set it to false first in case it is already opens, this ensures the Open action fires on the tab view
Then in the tab view I add the following to the on Open action
------
Dim detView
Dim mailType
Set detView = Application.MainViews.ActiveView.DetailsView
mailType = detView.lblCurrentAddress.Caption
------
Thanks for your help
