[?] TabControl & BackgroundColor

LS
Does anybody know if (and then HOW!) can I change the background color of a
WindowsForms.TabControl control?
It doesn't have any "BackgroundColor" property, how could then I change it?

Thanx!!

LS, I found it.

In the Design view of the Form1.cs, right click on the form. It will bring you to the property pane (usually on the midlower right hand side.)

Since it is difficult to go thru tons of the properties, I click on the icon with AZ and an arrow pointing down. It will alphaticalize the list. From that list, look for BackColor and click on the cell next to it.

You can provide the color of your choice.

Have fun. :)
