If you have a text box named Text0 on another tab, you can show the same
thing on this tab by adding a text box and setting its Control Source
property to:
=[Text0]
If you want something that is visible in all tabs, add the text box to the
form, outside the tab control. Then move it on top of the tab control, and
it will show through all pages.
Another alternative is use the Title bar of the form to show a crucial piece
of information. Use code in the Current event of the form to set the Caption
of the form.
