Tabbed Subform (TSF)


Description
Designed as if it were a stand-alone form. You can call it (to see the effect) from the session, but normally you would use ’Make to make all the subforms as a create (CR) action on the parent form.

CR: ’Make¨dbx.sub1 dbx.sub2

By default, the tabs are labelled with the form caption, but the Tab label over-rides this. The Tab width data is optional, and can be used to set the detailed appearance of the tabs if required. If you omit this setting, the tabs will be sized to fit your captions.
