sstab's back color can not be changed, you can do it only by changing the systems colors in control panel...

you can use some third party tools for this...other wise place some shapes on the pages and change the shape colors....will look different

that can not be changed...only way is to change is change your system's theme color thru control panel...other wise use a third party tab control...

or else placing a shape on the tab page will look differently, with margins at all the sides....

thanks sir
can u tell me about third party control

[Joacim Andersson]

You can only do this by subclassing the control, checking for WM_PAINT and WM_NCPAINT messages and then use your own code to draw the control... This however requires almost as much work as if you would create your own tabbed dialog control from scratch. The easiest solution would be to look for a third-party tool that already implemented this, if your project *really*requires it I guess you wouldn't mind paying for one.

you can use becubed controls or something like that...just google for it...you have to pay for those controls....
