If possible anyone can tell me what is the name of this control ...
If it is SSTAB then ... how on top these buttons,images are made so colorful...
It looks pretty much like an SSTab but it's impossible to say from just viewing a picture. What you can do is to launch Spy++ and use that to check the class name of the control.
You will probably find that the tabs are just picture box's that are coded to act like tabs. That way you can make them look like whatever you like.

David.Poundall how picture boxes can be coded to work like that do u have any example...?
Look at the attachment I posted in this topic:http://www.vbforums.com/showthread.php?t=309279
Spy++ works with any window regardless if it's a compiled file or not. You can also have a look at my Control Finder project posted in the Code Bank. Just run the project and drag the magnifying glass icon to this tab control and it will show you the class name.
Joacim your program is very efficient displaying information about every control.
But when i drag magnifier to that problem area , it made focus to form.
So it didn't told me whether it is Tab Control or PictureBox.
But i m now sure that it is not tab control .Bcoz if it would be tab control then right below to it will not be frames.But in case there are frames.
So what is it if not Tab Control , y it didn't make focus to it... :o
If my project can't get the handle of the control then it isn't a control, or it might be a lightweight control which is practically the same thing as no control. It must be drawn directly on the form.
But what do you mean by "there can be no frames"? Of course you can put frames on a tab in a SSTab control.
EDIT: BTW, did you drag the magnifying class directly to the tabs at the top? Since it looks like the tabs might not cover the whole Form but just the top part of it.
Did you check out the code from the topic I posted?Quote:
