Generally, I will use a PanelManager and a ThemedLinkMenu together to produce a themed tab control instead of the standard inherited TabControl. We are actually in development of a new ThemedTabControl as it will tie into some future MDI environment logic as well. But for now, look at the ThemedLinkMenu sample and you should be able to see how to use a vertical tab. For horizontal, you can still use a PanelManager, but you may need to use a Toolstrip or something else for a horizontal approach.

Again, I am a newbie here.

So I am just needing some info on how to use the tab control in Strataframe. Also, are there more than one style of tabs?
