Pages.Add method (Access)

The Add method adds a new Page object to the Pages collection of a tab control.

Syntax

expression.Add (Before)

expression A variable that represents a Pages object.

Parameters

Name	Required/Optional	Data type	Description
Before	Optional	Variant	An Integer that specifies the index of the Page object before which the new Page object should be added. The index of the Page object corresponds to the value of the PageIndex property for that Page object. If you omit this argument, the new Page object is added to the end of the collection.

Return value

Page

Remarks

The first Page object in the Pages collection corresponds to the leftmost page in the tab control and has an index of 0. The second Page object is immediately to the right of the first page and has an index of 1, and so on for all the Page objects in the tab control.

If you specify 0 for the Before argument, the new Page object is added before the first Page object in the Pages collection. The new Page object then becomes the first Page object in the collection with an index of 0.

You can add a Page object to the Pages collection of a tab control only when the form is in Design view.

Example

The following example adds a page to a tab control on a form that's in Design view. To try this example, create a new form named Form1 with a tab control named TabCtl0. Paste the following code into a standard module and run it.

Function AddPage() As Boolean 
 Dim frm As Form 
 Dim tbc As TabControl, pge As Page 
 
 On Error GoTo Error_AddPage 
 Set frm = Forms!Form1 
 Set tbc = frm!TabCtl0 
 tbc.Pages.Add 
 AddPage = True 
 
Exit_AddPage: 
 Exit Function 
 
Error_AddPage: 
 MsgBox Err & ": " & Err.Description 
 AddPage = False 
 Resume Exit_AddPage 
End Function
