How can i hide form from tab page..

Since you cannot hide tab pages and I am guessing that is what you want to do, you can remove it from the tab control without loosing your form.

 

On the form that contains the TabControl 1, add a second TabControl 2, set it's visability to FALSE.

 

In the button that hides the form, transfer ownership of the TabPage to the hidden tab control

 

TabControl1.TabPages["tbMyForm"].Parent = TabControl2;

To return the page back to TabControl1

 

TabControl2.TabPages["tbMyForm"].Parent = TabControl1;

This should solve your problem.

hey Feroz,

TabPage controls are constrained by their container, so some of the properties inherited from the Control base class will have no effect, including Top, Height, Left, Width, Show, and Hide.

The tabs in a TabControl are part of the TabControl but not parts of the individual TabPage controls. Members of the TabPage class, such as the ForeColor property, affect only the client rectangle of the tab page, but not the tabs. Additionally, the Hide method of the TabPage will not hide the tab. To hide the tab, you must remove the TabPage control from the TabControl.TabPages collection.
