Edit visibility tab control from different form

I am trying to enable/disable the visibility of a tab control object on a button click event on a different form. I am a bit lost on how to do this, could anyone give my an example of a good way to do this? I tried several things like: making the tabcontrol public, calling a public function which set the control.

Thanks in advance,

For example; I have this code in my main form:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace Events
{
    public delegate void LinkToEventHandler();

    public partial class frmEventGenerate : Form
    {
        public static event LinkToEventHandler Evt;

        public frmEventGenerate()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            Evt += new LinkToEventHandler(ReceiveEvent);
            SendEvent();
        }

        public static void SendEvent()
        {
            if (Evt != null)
            {
                Evt();
            }
        }

        public void ReceiveEvent()
        {
            System.Console.WriteLine("Received Event - This works ok");
        }
    }
}

and in the childform:

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace Events
{
    public partial class frmEventReceive : Form
    {
        public frmEventReceive()
        {
            InitializeComponent();
            frmEventGenerate frmGen = new frmEventGenerate();
        }

        public void ReceiveEvent()
        {
            System.Console.WriteLine("I want to be able to receive the even here!");
        }

    }
}
