Hi Sekhar,

You can make use of "selection" property of Tab control. It retains the name of the Tab that is currently selected.

In your application, there are two Tab controls i.e parent and child. After lunching your application retrieve the value of the "selection" property for both the Tab controls and check if they are the expected ones (i.e. Summary and Data Summary) or not.

Hope it will help you..

Hi PrabhatN, thanks for your great reply and i am new to QTP, as per your reply how to get value of the "selection". If you dont mind can you please explain in details.

I am providing script to you for better understanding. I am trying GetProperty with different values as given below. Please correct me if i am doing wrong?

Code:
SwfWindow("Lilly Science Grid").SwfTab("LSB_OCT_Workspace").Select "Summary"   // Focus 

sumTabName = SwfWindow("Lilly Science Grid").SwfTab("LSB_OCT_Workspace").GetROProperty("name")  

msgbox sumTabName   -- i am getting output like that this name :"LSB_OCT_Workspace"

sumTabName1 = SwfWindow("Lilly Science Grid").SwfTab("LSB_OCT_Workspace").GetROProperty("value")

msgbox sumTabName2   -- i am getting output like blank message box.

sumTabName2 = SwfWindow("Lilly Science Grid").SwfTab("LSB_OCT_Workspace").GetROProperty("text")

msgbox sumTabName1   -- i am getting output like blank message box.

Hi Sekhar,

Try this,

Code:
SwfWindow("Lilly Science Grid").SwfTab("LSB_OCT_Workspace").Select "Summary" 

getSelTab = SwfWindow("Lilly Science Grid").SwfTab("LSB_OCT_Workspace").GetROProperty("selection")

Now getSelTab will have the name of the Tab i.e. currently selected

Actually I tried this with Windows application and it worked. Hope it works with your application too.
