TabPage Question in visual C#

hi,

If u r implementing tabcontrol dynamically, then every time on buttin click u need to create new one...

If its static means u have designed tabcontrols for both buttons seperately.. then u can toggle them with visible attribute...

thank u..  

got help from another forum's mod by adding this to where the tabpage genertate seems to solve the problem.(my 1st tab page is named "abc")

            string tag = "abc";
            foreach (TabPage page in tabControl1.TabPages)
            {
            if (page.Text == tag){return;}
            }

 I tried putting 2 buttons and splitted the tabpage code to the individual buttons so when ever I click the specfic button it would generate the tabpages to that button.

But the problem is every time i click the same button it keeps on adding the tabpages, is there a refresh function to refresh the tabcontrol?

We use the TabPages.Add to add a new page to the TabControl like this:

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    tabControl1.TabPages.Add("Engine1", "Engine Sub Menu 1");
}

private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    tabControl1.TabPages.Add("Engine2", "Engine Sub Menu 2");
}

For additional info try, read this article by Mahesh: Working with Windows TabControl with C#

yes, I have no idea how to do this in programming...

I'd appreciate if anyone could give me a head start.

Is your problem that you couldn't add a tab item to the multi tabs programmatically?

Sorry if my description is confusing.

In short I'm trying to attain an application with 2 menus. Cars and Engines. Under "Cars" there's 3 tabpages but for "Engines" there's only 2 tabpages.

Hi Tommy,

Welcome! Could you rephrase what you want to attain a bit. My brain is very slow today. :)
