How can I lock a tab control untill fuction within tab is complete?

Hi
I am a little stumpt.  What I would like to do is to lock a Tab control until the fuction within the tab is complete (and have a dialogue box saying something like "fuction 1 must stop before you can run function 2").
I realise some event based programming would have been best but I wonder if there is a quicker fix as the code I produced is quite complex now. 
I attach an example (tab control and two case stuctures) to clarify what I need to do.
I know there is probably a really simple answer so sorry to be so dim.
Many thanks
Ash

I'm still of the opinion that you need to disable the tab control. It's quite hard to give advice without knowing the background. Ok, I know what you want to accomplish, but I don't know how it fits in the rest of your app.
Ha look at the "wizard" template which could be another solution for you.

  • When I right click on a link "Open link in new tab" since a few days, it "jumps over" the tab to the right and opens in the tab next to that. How can I change this back to opening in the tab next to the page from which I opened as it used to be?

    When I right click on a link "Open link in new tab" since a few days, it "jumps over" the tab to the right and opens in the tab next to that. How can I change this back to opening in the tab next to the page from which I opened as it used to be?

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • How can I lock the file in use

    Dear All, I transfer the large text file to Solaris 10 server and copy the this file with transfer not success to another path. but I can open the file with end of file. How can I lock the file with transfer not successfully.

    Locking on UNIX is cooperative, not manditory. That means that all applications need to check for the lock explicitly and then not use the file if the lock exists.
    But if something is accessing the file beyond your control, locking isn't going to prevent it.
    If you do control all the access points, then take a look at lockf or flock functions.

  • I can disable one of my MacBook's two CPUs using the CPUPalette application.  How can I do it under control of a script?

    I can disable one of my MacBook's two processors using the CPUPalette application.  How can I do it under control of a script?
    I want to do this because the MacBook is overheating.  I will soon get it repaired, but in the meantime, disabling CPU 2 is effective at preventing overheating.  Sadly CPUPalette is not scriptable, and it won't remember its setting after the computer is restarted.
    Would it be worth learning about the relevant Darwin API (supposing there is one) and writing a small command-line program for the job?  I am an experienced developer of software using Standard C.
    Comments appreciated.

  • How can I create variant of control query?

    Dear Expert,
    I am using BEx Broadcaster to bradcast query as a report.
    In tab Filter Navigation, I enter the control query, but the variant always gives me "(No Selection Possible)".
    How can I create variant of control query?
    I try to create variant via variable entry page when I excute my query.
    The variable show in table "RSRPARAMETRIZA" but not show in BEx Braodcaster.
    Thank you,
    Zilla

    Hello,
    Please run this control query on the portal and then save variant you require. If you want this variant to be available
    to all users make sure that the user specific flag is unchecked while saving the variant.
    Regards,
    Michael

  • When i want to return to my home page I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want how can I stop this as i have too many tabs open.

    When I want to return to my home page after looking at a website I click on the home icon and it resets the page to my home page but also open a blak tab which i don't want.How can I stop this as I have too many tabs open and have to close all of them.

    You may have an unwanted extension that is modifying sites (or the toolbar area). Try this:
    Disable ALL nonessential or unrecognized extensions on the Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then, if in doubt, disable.
    Usually a link will appear above at least one disabled extension to restart Firefox. You can complete your work on the tab and click one of the links as the last step.
    Does that flush the tab?
    Please report back on anything suspicious you find so others can learn about its bad behavior.

    How can I lock out my iCloud?
    Because of forget my old password I have create a new Apple ID
    But when I wan to log out my iCloud,it call me to logout Find My iPhone.
    I had already forget the password that why I create a new Apple ID.
    Have any solution for problem like this ?

    Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
    You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.

  • How can you hide a Continue button until all clickboxes are clicked?

    I have seen similar questions to this one, but none seemed to be the exact situation as mine.
    What I have: Several images on a screen.  When a user clicks an image it is replaced with another image.  I am using clickboxes for this task.  I do not wish for them to toggle back and forth. Once they click the original image it should stay changed.
    What I am trying to do: Once a learner clicks all the images (in no particular order) a Continue button appears that allows them to go to the next screen.
    If anyone has some suggestions on this situation please let me know, thanks.

    I cannot log in on the forum for the moment, so will try by answering by
    mail. I was aware of that problem (have presented those solutions so
    often), thought that since you left all images visible once the click box
    was clicked it wouldn't be a problem.
    Two possible solutions:
       1. Easiest one: add a statement in the Always decision that will Hide
       the click box just clicked. It has no sense to click it another time. That
       will mean that you still can do it with a shared action but that shared
       action will have two parameters now, the second one being the click box
       that has to adapted on each application of the shared action.
       2. If you don't want to make the click box hidden (which means at the
       same time disabled), you'll need a user variable for each click box,
       starting with a default value of 0, and toggle it in the Decision 'Always'
       to 1. The second decision will then need a condition that checks the value
       of all the user variables (with AND) and shows the Next button only when
       all variables have the value of 1.
    Sorry, but have to mail, cannot offer a screenshot in that case.

    I bought my iphone5 last Mar 1, 2013. However, it was stolen/lost last friday Jun 14.How can I locked it for them not to use or resell it?I'm not registered at ICLOUD. I am not expecting it to be returned. I just want the unit to become useless already so that stolen/lost  Iphone or any kind of apple brand gadget will no longer be of interest by others to buy it from any thief or any person who will resell it in just a small amount.

    Sorry, but if you did not set up Find My iPhone, then unless your iPhone is set up with a company Microsoft Exchange server or other mobile device management system, there is no way to wipe the iPhone of its data, though if you had a screen lock in it, the thieves/finder will probably restore it and wipe the data anyway. There is no way to lock the iPhone permanently to prevent someone from using your iPhone, though you can report the loss to your cell carrier and they may be able to blacklist it from connecting to their network.
    Regards.

    which 'inspired' me to do that:
    http://youtu.be/du4xWTtYKVY
    (the kids are my son's team)
    I drag the original into the storyline
    I set Markers (keyboard: m) to the original edit-points
    I have the pre-selections of my material in the Events browser, set edit-mode to 'video only'/shift-2
    set playhead to marker (magnetic is a good help), hit q
    'fine tune' the edit (edit/colors/effects/...)
    select clip and cmd-shift-arrow-down to apply final edit to the storyline
    jump to next marker (ctrl-' )
    That is a very fast way to 'dub' professional edits; and: I'm learning a lot, e.g. it is not only the edit-points, but the 'content'  which makes a good edit 'flow' (which lacks my version) ...
