Hi Raúl,

This is how I would do it:

Add a hidden notebook at the bottom of the master.
Also you should hide the tabs from the notebook.

Then, instead of having two new forms (form2 and form3),
put the contents of form2 in first page of notebook, and the contents of
form3 in second page of notebook.

Then when you click on the first button, show the notebook.
And when you click the second button, show tab page two of the notebook.

Hope this helps!

Good luck,

/Fredrik
