   Hello all, Is it possible to keep the MDI tab style (Office2007 style), but change the color of it (and the rest of the app) to something else, for example Office 2003 or Whidbey (doesn't matter, of course)? When I do this in my main frame: 
 the tabs change their appearance as well as their color. But I'd like to only change the color and keep their appearance. Thanks in advance, Dennis | |

   Hi,
 its not possible :( Office2007 appearance uses bitmaps to draw tabs. | |

 Ah, that explains it... Ok, is it possible to make the other (non-Office2007) tabs not overlap each other so much, because they cover a bit of the last letter of the previous tab and I don't want that? Thanks! | |

Or, if I could change the black Office2007 to something else (non-black) on the fly, that would suit me very well. I'm linking statically though, so not sure if it's possible? | |
