TabControl

Message Topic Search Topic Options Post Reply Create New Topic Printable Version Translate Topic

   Hi,
When using the TabControl, you have to attach a form to each Tab, like this:
TabControl.InsertItem 0, "Setup", frmSetup.hwnd, 0
In this example the Form 'frmSetup' is attached as the child of the 'Setup' tab. But this way the tab space is never transparent, like the normal Tabs in Windows. The background is always the same color as the Form or whatever you use.
Is it possible to make this tab space transparant, so it looks like a Windows tab?
I'm using VB6.
