If you are using tabcontrol, below is the code to know which tabpage is selected by user.

 private void tabControl1_SelectedIndexChanged(object sender, EventArgs e)
 {          
      if (tabControl1.SelectedTab == tabControl1.TabPages["tabPage2"])
      {
           ...add your code here
      }
  }
