The following example displays the Count property of the Microsoft Forms 2.0 Controlscollection for the form, and the Count property identifying the number of pages and tabs of each MultiPage and TabStrip.

To use this example, copy this sample code to the Script Editor of a form. To run the code you need to open the form so the Open event will activate. The form can contain any number of controls, with the following restrictions:

  • Names of MultiPage controls must start with "MultiPage".

  • Names of TabStrip controls must start with "TabStrip".

Note You can add pages to a MultiPage or add tabs to a TabStrip while in design mode. Double-click on the control, then right click in the tab area of the control and choose New Page from the shortcut menu.

 Dim Controls 
 Dim MyControl 
 
 Set Controls = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages.Item("P.2").Controls 
 MsgBox "Controls.Count = " & Controls.Count 
 For i = 0 to Controls.Count -1 
 Set MyControl = Item.GetInspector.ModifiedFormPages.Item("P.2").Controls.Item(i) 
 If (MyControl.Name = "MultiPage1") Then 
 MsgBox MyControl.Name & ".Pages.Count = " & MyControl.Pages.Count 
 ElseIf (MyControl.Name = "TabStrip1") Then
