[AccessD] Determine current tab (x-posted)

I have a form with a tab control which has 3 tabs.  The third tab has a 
subform with a tab control on it and 2 tabs.  The second tab of the subform 
has another subform with a tab control having 4 tabs.

On the main form I have a search box.  Currently if this is used the focus 
ends up with the first tab on the main form (it uses this field to search 
on using DoCmd.FindRecord).  My users want to be able to search but end up 
with the focus on the particular tab they were in before the search.

My problem is that I can't find a property that says what is the current 
tab.  I can find the current field but unless I know the tab I can't just 
set the focus to that field.  Any hints?

Regards
