[AccessD] Update or CancelUpdate Without Addnew or Edit

Excuse me?  It's easy enough to determine which tab was clicked, just
raise an event, for one way.  Why need a gazillion event stubs for all
those buttons when you can handle it all in one routine?

..and then you have to jump through loops to see which tab control was
clicked. And you cannot change its colour, etc.  you are stuck. Use a
button or a label simulating a tab/button and the world is your oyster
(assuming you like fish - but then we are back to your other problem
LOL).

 > but why make extra work for yourself showing and hiding stuff with
"buttons" on a single parent form and generally reinventing the wheel?

Agreed.  That is precisely what the tab control is for.  Write the code
and place it in a framework library... ;)
