Assuming:

1. you have a TabControl named 'tabControl1 on a WinForm

2. 'tabControl1 has two TabPages that you've named tabXML and tabText

3. 'tabXML has a TextBox inside it (multiline set to 'true) named 'tbXmL

4. 'tabText has a TextBox inside it (multiline set to 'true) named 'tbText

5. you have two Buttons, 'loadXML, and 'loadText connected to these Click EventHandlers:

C#

private void btnLoadXML_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // load the XML

    // your code goes here

    // tbXML.Text = ?????

    tabControl1.SelectedTab = tabXML;
    tbXML.Focus();
}

private void btnLoadText_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    // load the Text

    // your code goes here

    // tbText.Text = ?????

    tabControl1.SelectedTab = tabText;
    tbText.Focus();
}

So your after long explaination your short question is: How to programatically select a TabPage ?

Just set the selected page:

C#

tabControl1.SelectedTab = tabPage2;

or index:

C#

tabControl1.SelectedIndex = 1;

After that you may also want to set the Focus on a specific control on that page? -> call Focus() on the control..

Kind regards Johannes
