Eryk,

I've never tried putting anything over the top of the control. What are you trying to put over the top of it?

I don't use the controls pages. I use a VFP PageFrame class with it's tabls turned off. I put the ActiveX tabs next to the VFP pgf and then just us the ActiveX to set the ActivePage of the pgf. The ActiveX tab index is 0 based so you have to increment it by 1 to use with VFP.

>TabStrip ActiveX control is really cool one but unfortunately it's poorly documented.

>The use of it is based on ZOrder method and as far as I know it's impossible to use it in VFP forms at all because it always remains the topmost object in the form.

>Actually, you can see how all it's properties and methods work but you CAN NOT add any formant onto tabs (pages).
>The strategy used in VB doesn't work in VFP at all because you can not make any container to be on top of TabStrip control. As a result you can not use this ActiveX control.

>Maybe there is a way to use this control and I haven't come across it yet? Could anyone help me please?
