I have a tabbed form in Access and on one tab, I'd like to create an ActiveX TreeView object. When I go to build this object and drag it to the tab, it attaches itself to the general form instead of the tab. This puts the control over top of all the tabs instead of the tab I want it in.
How do I attach the ActiveX control to the tab and not the entire form?
I've done a number of different "moves" to try and get it to attach and I've looked through the options to see if there is an easy way to attach it but nothing actually defines how the control is attached unlike a normal Access form control that is contained in the tab.
I would like to keep the extra forms to a minimum and maintain a single, tabbed form with separate controls on each tab.
Answer:
Make sure to select the tab first and then create the TreeView control. TreeView controls cannot be attached to a tab page by drag/drop.
If done correctly, the control will be placed on the tab page just under the tab name within the borders of the tab page. A quick test by selecting other tabs can be done to check that it attached to the right tab and only that tab.

I'm creating a web-site using GWT for the first time. The aplication has two Composite class, one of them is a menu and the other one is where I show de info about the specific menu that has been clicked. I'm using MVP, the class History and the interface ChangeValueHandler to switch among different pages.
I have one pair presenter-view for each Composite. The app begins well creating the menu and the section info. When you click in the menu it works fine showing the information and the token browser is changed. The thing is that if you load a page(eg: myapp.com#register) without loading the home page, it doesn't show you the menu. It loads the Composite section info, but not the Composite menu (the Composite menu is load with myapp.com#home).
I think it's because of a bad design of the application, but I don't know how to do that in other way. If the app only had one Composite it wouldn't be a problem, but when there are 2 or more Composite per page I don't know how to manage the whole thing to work properly.
It's difficult to tell what exactly is wrong, because of the lack of code. So I'm guessing. You should design to act on the PlaceChangeEvent instead of the ValueChangeEvent. That means a menu click should fire the place change and then the application will handle this event. That way you unbind the menu actions from your content pages. And think more of each page as a separate entity. Also take a look at the GWT Activity mechanism and how it helps having a main page that is always the same and on that main page a content area that changes depending on the page actually shown.
You should include your menu in each page instead of creating it once in the home page and then keeping it on screen. I assume you create the menu and add it to the DOM via
RootPanel.get().add(myMenuWidget);
If you are using UIBinder it should be pretty straightforward to include the menu in each page, just a matter of adding the corresponding tag in each .ui.xml file of your pages.
I'm working on a GWT application that has the following layout:
- on top there's Menu Bar
- below that screen is separated into two panel by Split Layout Panel
When user clicks on a label in Menu Bar relevant information is show below in the left part of the screen. Then user clicks on an action item on that left part of the screen, and relevant information on that action item is displayed on the right part of the screen.
Clicking on an action item on the right part of the screen may also change relevant information on left part of the screen.
I want to extend on this by giving a possibility to drag/drop the panel on the right part of the screen to another browser tab/window. After that the right and left part of the screen should remain connected as if they are in the same browser tab/window.
Also, that new tab/window should only display that right panel, while Menu Bar and left panel, along with Split Layout Panel should not be present (this is less important but it would be great if it can be done).
Another important thing is that current visual representation of application is not changed but only extended with this functionality.
Is that something that can be done and if it is how to do it?
Thank you for your help.
I think you would have to use "HTML5" native drag and drop to drag between browser instances, so that would limit browser support. Both tabs would already have to have your code loaded into them so they could respond to these events.
If you have a server back end (not just static HTML/JS) then you could communicate via the server. Otherwise maybe "HTML5" client side storage to store blobs of data describing the panel contents. Probably easier re-render in the new browser/tab.
I know I changed some setting (or did something) to make the page tabs in my Access 2007 form disappear, but I can't remember what the setting was. I am not referring to turning on tabs instead of overlapping windows in the Current Database under Access Options. I have that set to show tabs, but it now only shows one tab for my 2-tab form. Previously I could see 2 tabs for this one form. I can still navigate between the tabs in design view by selecting them in the Property sheet.
Any suggestions much appreciated!!
Look for the style property on the property sheet. You can choose tabs, buttons and none.
In Joomla how do I set the frontpage to be the front page (without being in the main menu). Currently whatever I set to be the default in the main menu is the first page, but I don't want the front page to be in the main menu.
this si the site
Solved it. I made the front page the first (default) page in main menu. Then I hid the main menu and made a new menu with things I want to be shown.
Another way is to do the same thing with one of the other menus or create a new menu..this way you have the flexibility of using your main menu on the front page
I'm using the TabContainer/TabPanel components of the Ajax Control Toolkit.
I'd like to hide the tabs themselves and use a button elsewhere on the page to activate (bring to the front) one of the tabs without posting back to the server.
I can show and hide the tabs by grabbing their clientIDs and manually setting the visibility and display styles.
But is there a javascript function I can call to do this and perform whatever magic happens behind the scenes when I click an actual tab?
Example:
var tab = $find(“tabContainer’s ClientID”);
tab.set_activeTabIndex(1); // active the second tab panel
tab.getFirstTab().set_enabled(false); // disable the first panel
