Hi Selvakumar,

1. Create a Attribute at View context of type string .

2. In layout of Tabstrip   there is a property 'selectedTab'
   and assign that created  attribute to <b>this</b> selectedTab.

3. In the action of linktoaction, Just change set attribute
   to your required tabname.

4. In WDDOINIT method you have to set the created Attribute 
   to <b>default</b> TAB name(TAB1 in your scenario) .

Hope this resolves your problem.

Raghava Channooru.

The tab2 has only a viewcontainer.

The viewcontainer has a view within which this linktoaction is present, Though there is a event available in the events list in the main view(view containing the tab), the code is not working as the linktoaction on the view work independantly(when i exectue the view standalone).

Thanks,

Selvakumar M.

Hi Selva,

you'll need to ensure that the embedded view's context is mapped to the context of the view with the tabs.

Either that or set the embedded view to raise an event which you can trap in your main view.
