Hi,

I have a number of forms that the user fills out (all
already built). I would like to use the tab control
function to put all the forms that are related into one
form so that the user can fill them out in sequence.

I have set up the pages and tried inserting a subform. It
works but, inserts the subforms on every page instead of
just the one I want. Any ideas what I'm doing wrong?

Thanks a lot.

You didn't actually place the subform controls "onto" the pages. You
merely positioned them "in front of" the Tab Control.

Only new objects can be drag n' dropped onto Tab Pages. For existing
objects you have to Cut them to the clipboard, select the Tab Page you
want, and then Paste.

The tests to do afterwards is to insure that you only see the control(s)
when the desired Tab Page is selected and that if you move the Tab Control
the control(s) on the pages should move as well.
