you need to show the 2nd form first before calling tabpage2.show.

dim objfrm as new form2
         objfrm.show()
         TabPages2.show()

im not sure abt TabPages2.show()
u may need to do activate or someother things.. try out

See if this helps. Place on Form1.

Private Sub Button1_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        With Form2 '// shorten code.
            .TabControl1.SelectedTab = .TabPage2 '// select Tab.
            .ShowDialog() '// display as MsgBox, not giving access to previous Form until closed.
        End With
    End Sub
