    Exclamation SSTab

    Hi,

    I am trying to use an SSTab on one of my forms . However, whatever i put in the first tab appears also appears in the other two tabs.
    Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?


    Thanks.

    I had a similar problem in the past, turned out I wasn't really putting them on the tab, but on the form in front of the tab.
    The easy way I found to avoid it was to cut the control, select the tab and then paste it back.

    That is because you're pasting new control onto the form instead of Tab control - make sure tab control (and appropriate tab) is selected before pasting new control.
    Also, windowless controls like label won't even appear - they will be hidden behind the tab control.

    ladoo....don't believe the sstab is the issue...see Rhino's response above. OP already has SSTAB, just wasn't 'selecting' it (and the appropriate tab) before dropping his controls onto the sstab control. And what Rhino meant by saying that windowless controls wouldn't even appear, is that IF the SSTAB control is NOT selected prior to adding a windowless control (ie, label), you won't (ever) see it because it is BEHIND the SSTAB control. You have to select the SSTAB control (and your appropriate tab) for the controls added to be visible only on that tab. It is definitely not an issue of not having the SSTAB control loaded.
