Hi,
>Yes that's true - my result should look like this, but the problem with this actice x is that i can't place something onto it.
I thought that this would be the next question <g>. I've already written a reply in advance :)
>I've reached the same effect by using a pageframe (2 pages) and 3 buttons. it looks exactly like the TabStrip control active x.
You can set a property for the ActiveX, so it displays the tabs on the left, right, top or bottom. Rightclick on the control and select
Properties -> Orientation. Does this answer your question? I'm not sure if I understand you correctly here ...
