Steps to Reproduce Behavior
---------------------------

1. Create a new Standard EXE project in Visual Basic. Form1 is created by
   default.

2. On the Project menu, choose Components.

3. Add a reference to Microsoft Tabbed Dialog Control 6.0.

4. Place an SSTab control and a CommandButton control on Form1.

5. Paste the following code into Form1's code window:

   Option Explicit

   Private Sub Command1_Click()
     Form2.Show vbModal
   End Sub

   Private Sub SSTab1_Click(PreviousTab As Integer)
     Debug.Print "SSTab1_Click " & PreviousTab
   End Sub

   Private Sub SSTab1_GotFocus()
     Debug.Print "SSTab1_GotFocus"
   End Sub

6. From the Project menu, add a new Form. Form2 is added by default.

7. Paste the following code into Form2's code window:

   Option Explicit

   Private Sub Form_DblClick()
     Debug.Print "Form2 DblClick"
     Unload Me
   End Sub

8. Press the F5 key to run the program.

9. On the View menu, select the Immediate window.

10. On Form1, the current tab of the SSTab1 control is Tab0.

11. Click on Command1. Form2 pops up.

12. Position Form2 so that it covers the Tab1 or Tab2 tab of the SSTab1 control.

13. Double-click on Form2 in the area above the Tab1 or Tab2 tab of the SSTab1
   control.

14. Form2 unloads and you see that the current tab of the SSTab1 control has
   switched to Tab1 or Tab2 depending on where you clicked.

15. In the Immediate window, note that the Click and GotFocus events of the
   SSTab1 control are fired.
