I have a new tab panel and each panel form has several text editor boxes. I am seeing that if one of the text boxes is still open for editing when another tab is selected the text being edited isn’t consistently saved to its variable. Adding closeactiveobject to the tab panel object procedure code does not rectify (appears as if the code runs after the form switch). Am I missing something basic here??
Answer came to me while brushing my teeth: update variable every key! 
I’ll have to investigate this to confirm, but I think that is a bug that needs to be fixed. There are some situations where update variable every key isn’t appropriate – for example when you aren’t editing a variable!
This is now fixed
