Accessing scrollbar in a TabControl

I am trying to flash (i.e. blink) the scrollbars on a TabControl. Does
anyone know how I can get access to the scrollbar object with the
TabControl. And, does anyone have any ideas on how I can flash/blink
the scrollbar.

Be aware that AFAIK you can only access controls on the toolbar as long as
they are visible.

I am talking about the little left/right arrows that display when
multiple tab pages are added to a tab control. I want to access these
little arrows (I assume they are some type of scroll object) within my
code. I have not found a way to do this.

I want to place a tabControl with almost identical properties on several forms. I think the best way is to define a UserControl that inherits System.Windows.Forms.TabControl, and place all my controls on it. The problem is that I don't know how to bring up the graphical design interface for the TabControl. I suppose I COULD just design it as a UserControl and place a TabControl on it, but that seems a bit... inelegant (I'm going to...

Hi, I am dynamically creating datagridviews for my application, then filling them with data from a 30 row datatable, and everything seems to work great with one exception. My horizontal scrollbar never appears -- no problem with the vertical scrollbar. I even try setting the scrollbars property to Both, but still I only see the vertical scrollbar. Is there any other way to force the DataGridView's vertical scrollbar

Hi all In a Visual Studio 2005 C# project, I have a simplest tabcontrol with two tabpages. When I set tab control's Alignment property to Right, tab texts (captions) disappear. Does anybody know how to fix this? I tried this on two computers, at work and at home, both with Windows XP with latest service packs, and Framework 2.0 and 3.0 with latest SP.

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
