Thanks! I worry about this being slow already, so I'll stick with local variables where I need to.

I'm a cheerleader for the "Set/Get Control Values by Index" function so I look for ways (good/bad) to promote it.

This example avoids messing around with the indexing.

Your design has a serious flaw! You have the Buffer control outside the tab control and want to update the current tabs number? But if you change tab the Buffer control will show the other tabs buffer value. So either you need to add a Tab value change event and update the control to show the current tabs buffer value, or (simpler?) you'll have 1 control/tab.

This is a long thread. Can you clarify which "design" you are referring to?
