Questions on Checkbox and SSTab controls

I have a couple of things I can't work out.

1) I want to use a checkbox as a means to display the status of a variable. I do not want the user to be able to change its state by clicking on it. I have tried setting Enabled=False, but this just greys out the control. I also tried to change the state back in the Click event handler, but that just causes a recursive Click event.

2) I am using the SSTab control to provide a set of tabs. However I want to be able to select the active tab under program control and it does not seem to work.

The MSDN help gives this example:

private Sub Command1_Click()
Form2.SSTab1.Tab = 1
Form2.Show
End Sub



I have put this code in my form load (The tabs are on the first loaded form of my application):

private Sub Form_Load()
' Other code first
SSTab1.Tab = 0
Show
' More code ...
End Sub




Thanks for any help,
Mark

Please ignore question 2 about SSTab. I have just found that the display is not updated until the end of Form_Load. I had expected the change to be immediate as I stepped through the code. When each thing failed, I took out the code again. I thought Show would bring up the form with everything up to date at that point. I expected SSTab.Tab to work immediately in the same way that ZOrder does.

Question 1 still applies...
