TabControl with BOTH Top and Bottom alignment?

[CANCERMAN]

Hi everyone,
I'm another newbie with C# so bare with me :) OK, here is what
I wanted to do: Create a TabControl that will have some TabPages
aligned to the TOP and some TabPages aligned to the BOTTOM. Is it
even possible? Currently I created 2 TabControls, one with Top
alignment and the other with Bottom alignment, but that's kinda
cheating my way in, and it doesn't look good. Any good suggestions?

Thanks a lot

Cancerman,

You can always create a custom control, but you would have to do much of
the event handling and the painting yourself. There *might* be a
third-party control out there that does this, but I am not sure. You might
want to check out the section of the .NET framework documentation titled
"Creating a Windows Form User Control" located at (watch for line wrap):

Hope this helps.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I think that's probably the only way to
do it (w/o paying for it), is to create my own control. Well...
there's always a first time for everything. lets make this my frist
time to build my own controls (well a more complex one)..

Thanks for the help Nicholas
