How to create: Form inside tab

I was wondering if it was possible to have a form inside a tab control? So when a tab is clicked, there is a form within it.

If it is possible, then how should I go about doing it?

Thank you.

A 'form', meaning a System.Windows.Forms.Form control? No, I don't think you can do that.

You can make a user control that is all the controls you would want, then drop that on the Tabpage or drop it on a Form and be able to use it either way.

Please provide more specific details in your question, including which technology you are using (ASP.NET, Windows Forms, WPF, etc) and what Framework version you are using.

Also, Form is a very vague word. Do you mean System.Windows.Form, the HTML Form tag, or the generic meaning of a bunch of input fields? Please be more specific.

Hi, I am using Microsoft Visual 2008 C#. And would like to create a subform inside if a form. All the tutorials online ask me to click on the "Control Wizard" button and the "Form/Subform" button on the toolbox, which I am unable to find. Is there something which needs top be downloaded or the form opened in a special way?

You can infact stick a windows form inside a tab control. I went that route with one of my projects. I found it easier to code for each "tab" seperately.

Here's a snipit I use:
Setting the TopLevel proeprty to false is the key thing to do.
