The standard .NET one is available or you can buy other 3rd party tab controls.<br> <br> However, there are several good options as substitutes for tabs, the best being the combination of a ThemedLinkMenu plus a PanelManager (and its included pages).<br> <br> Using a ThemedToolStrip:<br> [url]http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost26095.aspx[/url]<br> [url]http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost25759.aspx[/url]<br> <br> Outlook side panel:<br> [url]http://forum.strataframe.net/FindPost25733.aspx[/url]<br> <br> For what its worth, I've had trouble with the .NET tab related to anchoring.

I definitely recommend using the themed panel manager and then some sort of UI controls to change panels.<br> <br>Wed, 03 Mar 2010 11:34:49 GMTGreg McGuffey
