The same way the designer does it - this isn't magic like Visual Basic (6 and below). Designer code is serialized to source code; taking a look at that would be a first step to understanding. The
TabControlhas a collection property -TabPages- that you can add instances of aTabPageto. If you read the .NET Framework SDK for both of these classes, setting a title and adding a page to a tab control should be obvious:TabPage page = new TabPage("My Caption");

as you have mentioned I have put my code as follows //this method is called from the main windows form public void AddNewTabPage() { if(tabReportPages==null) { this.InitializeComponent(); } System.Windows.Forms.TabPage tabPage1 = new System.Windows.Forms.TabPage("test"); // // tabPage1 // tabPage1.Location = new System.Drawing.Point(4, 22); tabPage1.Name = "tabPage1"; tabPage1.Size = new System.Drawing.Size(536, 310); tabPage1.TabIndex = 0; this.tabReportPages.TabPages.Add(tabPage1); //....continues for the othe tab pages tabPage1.Show(); tabPage1.BringToFront(); tabPage2.Show(); //..continues for the other tab pages } but any of the tab pages are not showing..why is that?(the tab control is added to a user control) samitha
