kumo Posted March 18, 2004 Posted March 18, 2004 hi i'm looking for a way to use a tabless tab view but vb.net doesn't seem to have a control for this... i change the view using a combo box... in vb 6 i just used frames and resized them on form load to all be on top of each other and then when i changed the combo box it moved the frame i wanted to the front... however this doesn't seem to work in .net because i can't seem to change the form size on form load... is there any other way to do this with the controls i have? or do you know of any controls that can do this? i see the panel control but it would be the same thing as group boxes with resizing problem i want a control like the tab that i can easily edit the contents of multiple things on top of each other but i don't want those ugly tabs on top any ideas?

Moderators Robby Posted March 18, 2004 Moderators Posted March 18, 2004 You can use a Panel for this, why can't you resize the form on loading? Quote Visit...Bassic Software
