Can't seem to find anything on this, I have a couple situations where it's desirable to assign a specifc TabID to the page, but I haven't found anything anywhere on this and I'm having trouble decyphering how TabIDs are assigned and stored.

If a specific procedure isn't documented, I would still appreciate any comments providing at least partial light on how TabIDs are created and stored.

TIA.

TabIDs are generated as pages are added to the site. There are some that are constant (every Portal 0 that I've ever installed has had TabID=36) but I believe that's just how things work out with the install scripts. It's an auto-incremented field so you can't enter your own values in there.

Understood how it works by default.

Am hoping that there is a way to perform surgery in the appropriate places to change the tabid. If there is no generally known method, I'm thinking of opening up the website in a Visual Studio Project and maybe in SQL Express Management, then do a global search on all instances of the tabid number that already exists... and manually changing.

u want to know how to change a tabid, or u want to change that it's set by default?

u can change it manually in the DB, u will find it in a table named "TabModules" .. if this wht u want

if you remove the autoincrement from the tab pages, you will need to alter the stored procedure to create tabs as well, so it can assign a tabId (which is required and must be unique) by itself.
