But if the idea is to have all the things on the containers show the same thing, that can be achieved by binding all the controls on it to same controlsources, and refreshing them in .uiEnable(). Sounds simpler, and also solves the tab order problem.

I'm not sure, I get what you mean here. I think, Malcolm was talking about navigation bar container. We had the same class at my prev. job called navstand. In our case we always put it on the form beneath the pageframe.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
