Part II Writing VBA Code to Exchange Data between Office Components

The Controls book in the Access Help Table of Contents.

The offline version of the Table of Contents has a VBA Reference section, with a section on controls,

and it does point to a Help topic for the Tab control — but the topic is not available offline! And in

any case, Search won’t find it.

Does that mean there is no help available for the Tab control? Not at all. I entered “Tab control on

Access forms” into Google and got a page of relevant topics, starting with a very useful tutorial on

using the Access Tab control. It isn’t specific to Access 2007, but that doesn’t matter because Tab

controls weren’t changed in this version. Note that some of the hits are from the Microsoft web site,

so Access Help can’t even find appropriate help topics in Microsoft’s own Support files! My conclu-

sion: if you need help for Access 2007, try Google.
