Is there a way to script a tab control tab ??

Basically, I'd like to jump to a certain nested subtab based on a field value on the master record.

So, if you have three employee types: A, B, C

When you click on the contact info tab control tab, it will go to either the type A, type B, or type C nested subtab based on the type of employee it is.

Is there any way to pull this off ?

or could someone recommend the best possible workaround ?

thanks

I've just started using these tabs and wanted to be certain the layout opened with the 1tab on all five tab sets.

Anyhow, the easiest trick seems to be place a field on the tab you want to go to, then make a script that says go to field:EmloyeeTabTypeA, boom, yer there. And since you may not want to actually put anything in the field add a step to go to another field (name? whatever) You're on your tab.

thanks.. that is actually how I ended up doing it...

(i couldn't wrap my head around the method using calculations)

i've attached my version..

if anyone could explain the calculation method a little more , I'm all ears :-)
