      TabControl works for me - you will find it in your toolbox.

      Real men don't use instructions. They are only the manufacturers opinion on how to put the thing together.

          If you aren't going to use the tabs to display the data, then don't use tabs at all - users are used to tabs and what they do, if you start going wildly away from that then they can get confused. If you just want a list of files you can click and open in a pop-up, then consider a toolstrip instead, and make each file a button.
