Hiding a subform

I have a form with 4 subforms in my Tab Control. Is there a way to not
show the first subform (AdditionalContacts)? As when I view the mainform now
and I scroll down the 1st subform shows it's info. I would rather have the
user click on the tab if they need to see that information.

Is this possible and how?
 
Your situation is not clear to me, but from what I understand you may be able
to get what you need by setting the subform control's visible property to No.
To do this, click on the subform in design view for the main form, then
click View > Properties. Another approach would be to use the form's Current
event to set the subform control's visible property to False. To make it
visible you can use a tab control's Click event, or a command button, or
whatever suits your needs.
 
Not what I wanted. It deleted the the tab (Additional Contracts) altogether.

What I did to accomplish this task was created a blank tab (named Tab
Index). So if the user wants to see additional contacts they don't have to
see a different color form steering in their face at the same time when they
have the main form up.
