TabControl problem

[prgr]

I have a form with a tabcontrol(with 2 tabpages) and I add a new TabControl at runtime using this->Controls->Add(gcnew TabControl()); Its been created at top left corner of windows and not visible fully..how to control its location/size etc? how to access it? Thanx in advance

I think you need to be in the C++ message boards. Anyway, you could do something like: TabControl* tabCtrl = new TabControl(); this->Controls->Add( tabCtrl ); Now use tabCtrl to get its position etc.

oops.. wrong section.. I cant do the way u describe...as I have to create some tabcontrols dynamically at runtime but not at design time

I still do not see why you cannot do that. perhaps a little more code from what you are attempting to do will be useful. You could do something like. void MyPage::CreateTabControl() { TabControl * tab = new TabControl(); Controls->Add( tab ); SizeAndPositionTab( tab ); //Put you size and position code in here } Now call CreateTabControl() dynamically from wherever in your code.

Thanx for ur reply. But this is applicable to one tab bcos I am going to specify its location. But at runtime I want to call this function(for eg: 20 times) then I cant see 20 tabcontrols as each one overwrites one another.Hope u understand my problem
