   If I follow what you are wanting to accomplish then set up the limits
normally.   In the ApplyRange method, before parent call

  if (Condition = Use Range Limits)
      Self.Order.LimitType = Limit:Single/Current/Pair
  else
      Self.Order.LimitType = Limit:None
  end

When LimitType is Limit:None the range limit conditions are not read into
the prop filter statement.   When LimitType = Single etc...
the conditions are read into the filter.


   Also if you are using different conditions on each tab sort order
be sure to test for the current tab.

   case choice(?currenttab)
      of  1
           limit test
      of 2
           a different limit test
      of 3
         ....
   end
