[AccessD] JIT Forms

JC:
 
I have a form with about 16 tabs, a bunch of combo boxes, and a bunch of
sub-forms.  It will not surprise you to learn that it is taking an
unacceptably long time to open - 60 seconds on a smallish database over a
wireless connection to my laptop (trying to simulate a slow server).
 
I remember something about a form like this that you had and, I believe,
loading the combo boxes and sub forms only when a tab got the focus?  The
combo boxes are bound so I can't wait to put in the row source until they're
clicked.  But I could load the row source when the tab was activated - store
the row source in the tag and load it if it's not there.  But there's no
activate or got focus event for a tab.  There is a mouse move event but I'm
not sure that will do  to trigger loading of the Row Source and the
sub-forms. 
 
How did you solve the problem?

Regards,
 
Rocky
