Working with pages on forms

Pages allow you to organize controls into groups. If your form has more controls than can be displayed on the main page, you can add a page to group the controls on the form. You can add as many pages as you need.

Adding tabs to forms
By default, each record form contains one tab. You can add tabs to the form.
Changing page names
You can rename a page and include an access key so that users can display the page by pressing the corresponding key on the keyboard. Access keys are underlined in the page name that appears on the page.
Restricting access to tabs
By default, a page and its respective tab is visible to all users, but you can restrict access to a page so that it is visible only to users in selected groups.
Changing the order of tabs
By default, tabs on the form are displayed in the order in which you create them. You can change the tab order by assigning an index number to a tab. The index number identifies the order of the tab on the form; the first tab has index number 0, the second tab has index number 1, and so on.
Deleting pages
You can delete a page from a form. Deleting a page also deletes all of the controls on that page.
Copying pages
You can copy a page, including all of its controls, and paste it into another page in the same form or into a different form. After pasting the page into a form, you can modify the page.
