What is the difference between the two? Is one better than the other?
SStab is container and TabStrip is not (you need to use frames or pictureboxes with it).
SSTab is very buggy and TabStrip is basically bugs free but has some minor issues.
I personally prefer to use TabStrip over SSTab.
Waht are the advantages of each? I cant seem to find amny differences...
Rhino's assessment of each of those controls are correct. I also prefer the TabStrip over SSTab, because the TabStrip is more versatile, IMHO.
But what are major advantages that tabstrip has?
LOL ... It is a bug free control so it means less headach.Quote:

SSTab does have that so perhaps it's another advantage.
Oh, wow, sounds helpful, also, Is there a way to allow users to add tabs during run time like on IE7 or Firefox 2?
Of course you can:
Code:Private Sub Command2_Click()
TabStrip1.Tabs.Add , , "Tab " & TabStrip1.Tabs.Count + 1 'change caption to whatever you need
TabStrip1.Tabs(TabStrip1.Tabs.Count).Selected = True
End Sub
Wow, thank you, and what would be shown in this new tab?

You know Bob, you're going to have to use your own imagination to solve that - you can't endlessly ask "what's going to happen if ...". ;)
Best regards.
