    Hi, I'm creating a little application with multiple screen but I don't want to user MDI window. So I've got the idea to use TabControl tu design each window I need for my application. Second Point, I want to change the tab by pressing a button on the main window or by selecting option in the menu. All is working fine. The next step is to hide the Text Label of each Tab. I haven't find any option in the tabcontrol ot act this way. Does any1 know how to do this ! Thx Sybux

      Do you wan't to hide the Text or the Tabs? Text is easy, just don't put in any Text, you'll end up with blank tabs. Hiding the tabs is a little more complicated. Basically, you can't using standard methods. You could try moving the tabs up off the top of the form, under your menu bar, or, under some other kind of control. You could probably use some third party tab control that has that functionality, but I don't know of any. Or you could get imaginative and hide the tabs behind another control on the form, even if was just a blank panel control, or something like that. RageInTheMachine9532
