expression Required. An expression that returns one of the objects in the Applies To list.
Remarks
The MultiRow property uses the following settings.
| Setting | Visual Basic | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Yes | True | Multiple rows are allowed. |
| No | False | (Default) Multiple rows aren't allowed. |
You can also set the default for this property by using a control's default control style or the DefaultControl method in Visual Basic.
When the MultiRow property is set to True, the number of rows is determined by the width and number of tabs. The number of rows may change if the control is resized or if additional tabs are added to the control.
When the MultiRow property is set to False and the width of the tabs exceeds the width of the control, navigation buttons appear on the right side of the tab control. You can use the navigation buttons to scroll through all the tabs on the tab control.
Example
To return the value of the MultiRow property for a tab control named "Details" on the "Order Entry" form, you can use the following:
Dim b As Boolean
b = Forms("Order Entry").Controls("Details").MultiRow
To set the value of the MultiRow property, you can use the following:
Forms("Order Entry").Controls("Details").MultiRow = True
