    Question Tab control in VC++

    Sorry for the dumb question.. but how can I put a tab control to work in my project... all other controls are very intuitives, but the tab control is driving me crazy.
    I've alredy read SAMS teach you bla bla bla in 21 days, but it seams that they forgot to teach this....
    Please... this stupid question is driving me crazy.
    I'm a person with a simple taste...
    I only like the best.

    What you want are property sheets.
    Here is a tutuorial with example code.
    Here is the reference for property sheets.

    Now that you know what they're called, you can google for more examples.

    You'll want to post to the Windows Programming forum next time.

    And this one has been moved to the windows board
    If you dance barefoot on the broken glass of undefined behaviour, you've got to expect the occasional cut.
    If at first you don't succeed, try writing your phone number on the exam paper.

    Not necessarily. Property sheets are merely a specialisation of tab controls.

    Yeah, and at any of the above links, you can use the table of contents (TOC) pane on the left to explore other controls that are available...that you might not know about

    Sorry, that requires a leap of intuition beyond my Ken.

    I found this thread searching for intuition.

    The one time I really wanted to put tab controls in something I could never figure it out .
