Default Pages of a Tab Control

Is it possible to have a page of a tab control either highlight, blink,
change colors, become bold or some other way of identifllying which pages
have been filled out and which has not.

We have several pages on our tab control and I don't want to have to go to
every page and check the sub-forms to see if they have been filled out.

Thanks for any help I can get,

Danny

Take a look at

but it does not work under all Access/OS combination's.

Default Pages of a Tab Control

Stefan,
That is a really cool look that i will incorporate into my db but what i'm
looking for is for the tab to change colors (and stay changed) if the
sub-form has been filled out, because all of the sub-forms on the tabs will
not be used everytime so to keep from going to several different tabs to find
which tabs sub-form has been filled out could it change as away of letting me
know it has been filled out or possibly if the tab has been opened and the
color change would become active and stay changed letting me know the tab has
been entered.

Thanks,
Danny

Sorry, but where is your problem here? You can code this.
