Container Property

Use the Container property to specify the name of a component that is the container for the current component.

Certain types of components must be placed within another component that functions as a container.

• Grid columns must be contained within a grid component.
• Notebook tabs must be contained within notebook components.
• Any component on a notebook tab must be contained within the notebook tab.
• Any component on a form page must be contained within the form page.

Notebook tabs and form pages can contain a variety of component types. Only those components contained by the current tab or page are visible to the user.

The container-contained relationship is usually established by creating the contained component on the container. This relationship can be maintained either by modifying the contained component's Container property or by modifying the container's Contained Components property.

The tab order of the container must precede the tab order of its contained components.
