Tabpanal

How can I use a tabpanel to show a complete form (with all records) unrelated to the parent form. I want to use the record field value selected in the tabpanel, in the main form

place an unrelated tab in the tabpanel.

Then you have full control over what the tabpanel have to display

But when I added a non-related tabpanel form, it shows only the header section, records are not displayed. I checked separate foundset option.

did you put youre foundset what you want to see in it?
If it is unrelated that YOU have to specify at one point what you want to see!

what happens if you show once that tabpanel form as a main form and then back to the form that shows it as a tab?

Thank you.
I didn’t specify the foundset.

Yes,
When I see the child form separately and move to the integrated form, tab panel shows the records.

How can I specify foundset to a tabpanel form in procedure and in which event it should be specified?

Make the method on the form shown in the tabpanel - and use the “onShow” event on the form that is shown in the tabpanel.
