Is it any way that automatically will be assigned current tab to field ?

Yes - and no.

If you define the field Calendar::current as an unstored calculation field with the formula specified as:

$$_active_tab

- then, with the rest of the solution set up the way you have it, the Calendar::current field will automatically return the current tab number, regardless of how the user navigates to the tab.

BUT (fly in ointment...) the unstored calculation will not refresh/update until you click into the field or otherwise refresh the screen. However you might consider using a free plug-in (eg zippScript) to refresh the screen when the tab changes, if this is a concern.

BTW, it is no longer generally accepted that using:

Go to Field [ ]

is a desirable way to exit the record. In the days of version 3, that was a common (and necessary) work-around, but more recent version have provided a specific command for this purpose:

Commit Records/Requests [ ]

- so I'd recommend that you consider using it instead. ???
