I have a button on one form that will open up another form containing three tabs for three different pages. How can I tell FM to always open on a set tab instead of the last tab viewed.?

The trick is that you will need to go to a certain field on the particular tab that you want to go to. IOW, if you have 3 tabs, contacts, invoices, & products, to go to the invoices tab, use a go to a field on the produts tab such as ProductID or ProductName, etc.

Thanks for that, but the tab I want to go to containes a web page (google map) and as I wanted max screen size I created a second tab form titled 'control panel' containing the buttons to go 'Back' or to 'Customers Form'. As this is the last tab before going back, when I return the 'Control Panel' tab is displayed.

First of all what version of FM are you using. You could not use the webviewer if you were using 8.0 as your profile said. How are you implementing Google maps. If you are using FM8.5 you can name each tab as objects and then reference the object name.

FM will save the default tab to be the last tab you selected while in Layout mode.

Thanks alot, that works fine. Yes it is FM 8.5 Ill update my profile
