Adding Controls To TabStrip On UserForm

[HighAndWilder]

Hi

I'm trying to add a control (ListBox) to a Tabstrip.

I can add a control to a Frame but using the same technique I thought that I had it sussed. Apparently not.

Set Cmd = Frame1.Controls.Add("Forms.CommandButton.1", "cmd1")
Cmd.Left = 30
Cmd.Top = 70
Lbl.BackColor = RGB(224, 224, 224)

The above works fine where Cmd is declared as follows in the form module declaration area :
Private WithEvents Cmd As MSForms.CommandButton

Dim objTabSTrip As Object
Dim objListBoxNew As MSForms.ListBox

Set objTabSTrip = Me.Controls("tabTabStrip")
Set objListBoxNew = objTabSTrip.Controls.Add("Forms.ListBox.1", "lstListBoxNew")

The last line throws up an "Object doesn't support this property or method" error message.

Any ideas anybody?

I'm doing this in the forms UserForm_Activate procedure but I would like to do it in the code that I have set up to create the form on the fly.
Can anybody point me to some explanations on the web as to how I can do this? What I have found so far is fairly basic. I have already managed to create most
of the commonly used controls including TabStrips and Frames but cannot add controls to these.

Thanks

A TabStrip isn't a container control like a Frame so they don't have controls on/in them.

The TabStrip Control allows me to add listboxes, textboxes etc to it and they behave in exactly the same way as if they were directly on the userform so I don't understand why I cannot add these at run time.

You aren't adding them to the TabStrip, you are adding them to the userform.

A TabStrip cannot 'contain' other controls, as such it does not have a Controls property.
