Remarks
Use the NextViewCommandName field to represent the "NextView" command name.
You can use the value of this field to take advantage of the MultiView control's automatic updating of the active View control. For example, if a View control contains a Button control that navigates to the previous View, you can set the CommandName property to the value of the NextViewCommandName field, which is "NextView". This causes the MultiView control to automatically decrement the value of the ActiveViewIndex property when the button is clicked.
