Programmatically hide/remove tabpages in VB.NET

I have 10 tabpages on my form. Based on an input in a textbox, I want to programmatically remove number of tab pages, i.e. if textbox input is 3 then only first 3 tabpages should be visible and tabpages 4 to 10 must be removed or should not be visible. I tried following without any success,

For i = 0 To 9
Form1.TabControl1.TabPages.Remove(Form4.TabControl1.TabPages((val(textbox1.text)) + i))
Next

(No exceptions or errors are generated for above statements)

What is wrong with these statements?

Solution

  • check this. 

        For i As Integer = TextBox1.Text + 1 To 9

        Form1.TabControl1.TabPages.Remove(Form4.TabControl1.TabPages(TextBox1.Text + 1))

    Next

    or 

        For index As Integer = 9 To TextBox1.Text + 1 Step -1

        Me.TabControl1.TabPages.Remove(Me.TabControl1.TabPages(index))
    Next
