How to get CXTTabCtrl to use themes

   I'm not sure this is possible (I haven't figured it out).
I have an existing MDI app which uses a CTabCtrl in the child windows for multiple views.  I am "upgrading" the interface with CodeJock, and would like to use the theme options for these tabbed views in the child window.  The CXTTabCtrl drops in real nicely, but I haven't determined that I can use the themes / Paint Manager with them.
I tried using the CXTPTabControl, but can't get it to seem to work.  First off, I can't even find a Create method, either in the code or the documentation.
What is the easiest way to replace a CTabCtrl with something that will allow me to use the paint manager or otherwise use themes?  If there is some code I can look at that would be great too.
