Hi guys....I have a multi-tab form. As default, these all enter on the main
message tab, but as a workflow solution I would like to enter (on new read)
on a given tab depending on the completion status of previous tabs of the
same form as it passes from person to person. Any ideas - I can't see a
SELECT capability on the VBSCRIPT.

The method you're looking for is Inspector.SetCurrentFormPage:

Set myInsp = Item.GetInspector
myInsp.SetCurrentFormPage "P.2"
Set myInsp = Nothing
