Jim,

I was hoping I would get an answer from you and I did.

I was also hoping for a better answer.

To make this situation happen;

Create a pageframe with two pages.
Put a textbox on each page.
add this code to page1.deactivate
nodefault
Run the form.

If you try to click on page2, you will not be able to.
but if you click on the page1 tab and then press the right arrow, you will be on page2, but the pageframe will think you are still on page1.

Your suggestion to disable the other page won't work because, I have a much more complicated situation. I just narrowed it down to get some feed back.
