PRB: TabPicture Property of SSTab Control Gives an OLE Error

 Last reviewed: November 11, 1996
Article ID: Q158757
The information in this article applies to:
  • Microsoft Visual FoxPro for Windows, version 5.0

SYMPTOMS

When you use the TabPicture property of the SSTab control, the following error message appears: 

   OLE error code 0x8002000e: Invalid number of parameters
The TabPicture property set the bitmap or icon so that it appears on the specified tab of an SSTab control.

WORKAROUND

Use the Tab property to set the current tab. Use the Picture property to set the graphic you want to display. 

   ThisForm.Olecontrol1.Object.Tab = 1
   ThisForm.Olecontrol1.Object.Picture = LoadPicture(Home()+"fox.bmp")

STATUS

Microsoft is researching this behavior and will post new information here in the Microsoft Knowledge Base as it becomes available.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Create a new form.

  2. Place an OLE Container Control on the form.

  3. From the Insert Object dialog box, click Insert Control.

  4. From the Object Type list, select SSTab Object. (If you have Visual Basic installed, you may see it listed as Sheridan Tabbed Dialog Control.)

  5. Place a command button on the form.

  6. Add the following code to the click event of the command button: 

          ThisForm.Olecontrol1.Object.TabPicture(1) = ;

             LoadPicture(Home()+"fox.bmp")


  7. Save and run the form.


  8. Click the command button.

    

If you want to use the workaround, replace the code in step 6 with the
example code in the WORKAROUND section.
