All,

I want to use a tabstrip control to show multiple web forms but I can't put
controls inside of controls so I need to determine a method for changing
pages/forms from the tabstrip. I thought about using an iframe and just
changing the source as the user clicks on certain actions inside the
multipage, is this the best way to do this?

Thanks All,
Tom

I put user controls within the tabs.
and in the code behind for each ascx

Protected WithEvents General As MR_Entry_General
This way you can access any of the public properties on the user
control.

<%@ Register TagPrefix="UC" TagName="General" Src=Mr_entry_general.ascx
%>
<iewc:tabstrip id="TabStrip1" runat="server" TARGETID="MultiPage1"
TabSelectedStyle="background-color:LightSkyBlue;color:black;border-
bottom:none;" TabHoverStyle="background-color:LightSkyBlue;color:red;"
TabDefaultStyle="font-family:verdana;font-weight:bold;font-
size:8pt;color:black;text-align:center;border:solid 3px
LightSkyBlue;padding:5px;border-bottom:none;background-color:white;"
BorderStyle="None">
        <iewc:Tab Text="General"></iewc:Tab>
        <iewc:TabSeparator></iewc:TabSeparator>
        <iewc:Tab Text="Items"></iewc:Tab>
        <iewc:Tab Text="History"></iewc:Tab>
        </iewc:tabstrip>
    <iewc:multipage id="MultiPage1" border="3" runat="server"
BorderStyle="Solid" BorderColor="LightSkyBlue" BorderWidth="3px">
        <iewc:PAGEVIEW ID="pvGeneral">
            <UC:General ID="General" runat="server">
</UC:General>
    </iewc:PAGEVIEW>
