How can I select a tab page at runtime

Question

When I create a tabpage at runtime how can I call that same tabpage at a different runtime sequence? SelectedTab = "newPage" ? newPage is not a collection I made at design time so it's not a part of collections. newPage is created only at runtime. It's for a Windows Form program Visual studio 2010

Thanks in advance and I hope you can help.

Don't have Visual Studio installed on my system yet, waiting for IT guys....but will try for a quick pointer.

TabPage tp = new TabPage();
tp.Name="MyTabPage";
tabControl.Controls.Add(tp);

To select your tabpage, you need to refer "tp"(tabPage variable) but NOT "MyTabPage"(name of tabpage).

tabControl1.SelectedTab = tp;

If they are being used in different methods or classes, try to use the properties. Hope it helps.
