Examples

The following code example creates a TabControl with one TabPage. This example uses the Add method to add a single tab page to the tabControl1 tab control. Notice the TabPages property is used to get the tabControl1 controls collection to add the tabPage1 to this collection.

Use the System.Drawing and System.Windows.Forms namespaces for this example.

        ' Adds the tabPage1 to this collection.
        Me.tabControl1.TabPages.Add(tabPage1)

        Me.tabControl1.Location = New Point(25, 25)

        Me.ClientSize = New Size(300, 300)
        Me.Controls.Add(tabControl1)
    End Sub
