Answer 1

You can use an method in your main class like following

public void switchToTab(int tabid){
            myTabHost.setCurrentTab(tabid);
}

And now in Record class on your Button click call this

        YourStartCalss parentActivity;
        parentActivity= (YourStartCalss) this.getParent();
        parentActivity.switchToTab(yourtabid);
