SYMPTOMS
========

To activate a page in a tabbed dialog box, you must click the page you want and
complete the click by completely releasing the mouse button.

STATUS
======

This behavior is by design.

MORE INFORMATION
================

The "activate" event does not occur until you release the mouse button. This
design allows you to think about the action and even change your mind without
activating the page. The mouse can be moved off the tab while the left mouse
button is still down and the Mouseup event won't be interpreted by Visual FoxPro
as an activate on the tab item.

This behavior is different from the way tabs behave in Microsoft Excel and
Microsoft Word.
