Try that derived class form TabControl. It simply overrides the DisplayRectangle and adds a ShowTab Property for your new TabControl class. Does it help you ?

<br />public class MyTabControl : TabControl<br />    {<br />        public override Rectangle DisplayRectangle<br />        {<br />            get<br />            {<br />                if (showTabs)<br />                {<br />                    return base.DisplayRectangle;<br />                }<br />                else<br />                {<br />                    return new Rectangle(0, 0, Width, Height);<br />                }<br />            }<br />        }<br /><br />        #region Properties<br />        private bool showTabs = true;<br />        [Category("Apparence"),<br />        Description("Indique si les onglets s'affichent."),<br />        DefaultValue(true)]<br />        public bool ShowTabs<br />        {<br />            get { return showTabs; }<br />            set<br />            {<br />                showTabs = value;<br />                RecreateHandle();<br />            }<br />        }<br />        #endregion<br />    }<br /><br />
