Does anyone know of a way of having the page headings on a Tab control look different from each other, ie, one red another blue.
Any assistance will be grateful.

Many Thanks.
 
I don't believe that it is possible to change the color directly ie. Tab 1 is red Tab 2 is blue, however, you can make each tab unique. Right click on the tab control and choose properties. Select the format tab. Select the picture property. When the ... appear select click on that build button. Just select a picture and each tab will be unique. I hope that helps. Dave Harris.

Thanks for that Dave, it's another angle i can maybe look at if there is no way of making the text unique.
 
make pictures of text (in whatever font/color/size/... you want), one for each tab.

assign those pictures to the tabs.

You user should never know that they are looking at a picture of a word, instead of a word. Explaining to them would be like explaining the difference between 5 and "5" (the number and the character).

Have a good life! :-D
