My guess would be Data Binding like Marvin said or use some of the TabControl built in events.
Documentation: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.tabcontrol.aspx
My guess as for the events to use:
SelectionChanged
TabItem GotFocus event: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.windows.controls.tabitem.aspx
Use a dialog (window that sets a property that is attached to it and validate the password. if the password is valid and the dialog result is OK then you can either a.) add the tabitem at runtime or b.) force focus off or away from the tab you want hidden.
I did something similar recently: http://www.codeproject.com/Tips/652862/Product-Key-Dialog

bool value?

If you try the above, yes it would be a bit challenging to impliment but would be really secure in my opinion.

This is just an idea but... cloud storage to keep a key file and use a url to access it. The file could be something like a windows batch file that compiles a c# code library in a special format at runtime. Options for encoding/encrypting both values and built runtime code, even automate the dll encryption. Theres a few offusicators(I cant spell) or tools to mix up compiled code that are open source. Either way I think you should look into two things if not a combination of the two:
1.) Compiling code at runtime
This to me means that even if someone gains access to your libraries, to make them work your library could need say.. a key from sql database that can only be ran when the app starts up and runs a batch file. To compile a library/app to then run and find a product key. With out the app being ran from the exe you made and being protected, The sql search could only be ran and return a key if your app isnt decompiled, internet is available, the app is to grab the key from sql query is running.
2.) Open source decompilers

Help each other out?

Do you have access to files from other computers in the network group?

Let's start with this...
Desktop or Browser based?

I do not know where to begin as far as what to put in the foreach loops and so on.

NEEED HELP.
I don't think this has to do with the header file at all. I'm lead to believe this because if I open up a blank project and try to use an enum, I get the same error. And that's with out the header file.

[Redundant code removed -- SA]

still doesn't work. same error.

Book Options:
Sam's Teach Yourself C++ in 24 Hours ( http://www.amazon.com/Sams-Teach-Yourself-Hours-Edition/dp/0672315165 )
Ivor Horton's Beginning Visual C++ 2010 ( http://www.amazon.com/Ivor-Hortons-Beginning-Visual-Programmer/dp/0470500883 )


IDE options:
Dev C++ (old, outdated, and will never be updated, great for console, Win32 GUI)
Visual C++ 2010/2012 Express: (honestly the best out there, clean interface,needs some work on Intellisense features)
Turbo C++ 3.0 (really old school. 1993 release year. compatability issues)
CodeBlocks IDE (I avoid using this personally but others find it fine)

Here's my take on C++.
C++ is like a dumber version of C#/VB .Net. I have to use a different mind set when programming in C/C++ because you don't have as much documentation most of the time, lack of libraries and sometimes Intellisense in Visual Studio.

I appreciate the link you gave me, but I can't seem to find a download for it. I'm under the assumption that I have ti download and import libraries into my project to get this to work.

How do I read data between tags like:

<menu>
<item id="0">Item 0</item>
</menu>



I want to retrieve the text "Item 0" if i search for the tag id.

I changed the columns in my database and in my code. Instead of "Password" it's "Passw". same for the username. Did this to avoid issues and it still doesnt like it

tells me there's an error with the sql command syntax.
I've made the suggested changes to the following:
void SaveData()
{//do the real work here
string insertCMD = "INSERT INTO Users (Usern,[Passw],RegisterEmail) VALUES (@Usern,@Pwd,@RegisterEmail)";
string ConnStr = @"Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=C:\Users\Sagitta\Documents\RS_Studio_User_Login.mdb";
using (OleDbConnection MyConn = new OleDbConnection(ConnStr))
{
try
{//insertCommand.Parameters.Add("Time", OleDbType.Char).Value = strTime;
MyConn.Open();
OleDbCommand Cmd = new OleDbCommand(insertCMD, MyConn);
Cmd.Parameters.Add("@Usern", OleDbType.Char).Value = textEdit1.Text;
Cmd.Parameters.Add("@Pwd", OleDbType.Char).Value = textEdit2.Text;
Cmd.Parameters.Add("@RegisterEmail", OleDbType.Char).Value = textEdit3.Text;
Cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
MyConn.Close();
MessageBox.Show("User creation successful!");
this.Close();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}

}

and used "Passw" and "Usern" instead of "Username and "Password" in the database

Even with these changes it fails. No error message at all, nothing to show it failed.

Here's what I have so far:
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;
using DevExpress.XtraEditors;
using System.Data.OleDb;

namespace RS_Studio
{
public partial class Register : DevExpress.XtraEditors.XtraForm
{
public Register()
{
InitializeComponent();
}

private void simpleButton2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{//cancel button
this.Close();
}

private void simpleButton1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{//submit
if (string.IsNullOrEmpty(textEdit1.Text) == false || string.IsNullOrEmpty(textEdit2.Text) == false || string.IsNullOrEmpty(textEdit3.Text) == false)
{
SaveData();
}
else
{
MessageBox.Show("Please fill out all of the information");
}
}
void SaveData()
{//do the real work here
string insertCMD = "INSERT INTO Users (Username,Password,RegisterEmail) VALUES (@Username,@Password,@RegisterEmail)";
string ConnStr = @"Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=|DataDirectory|\RS_Studio_Login.mdb";
using (OleDbConnection MyConn = new OleDbConnection(ConnStr))
{
try
{//insertCommand.Parameters.Add("Time", OleDbType.Char).Value = strTime;
MyConn.Open();
OleDbCommand Cmd = new OleDbCommand(insertCMD, MyConn);
Cmd.Parameters.Add("@Username", OleDbType.Char).Value = textEdit1.Text;
Cmd.Parameters.Add("@Password", OleDbType.Char).Value = textEdit2.Text;
Cmd.Parameters.Add("@RegisterEmail", OleDbType.Char).Value = textEdit3.Text;
Cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
MyConn.Close();
MessageBox.Show("User creation successful!");
this.Close();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message);
}
}

}
}
}


and when the submit button is pressed it throws this exception:
"Invalid Authorization Specification"

Also, the code still failed. No errors/exceptions. Just simple runtime error. It won't insert still.

Ok, so let me ask a few questions about your syntax so I can better understand this. Why did you use RegisterEmail rather than [RegisterEmail].
Also, how could I format this into the database.

I found myself in your shoes a few years ago. Took an AP CompSci class in High school. Did pretty well in it, made the top 5 students. What I did was started to learn how C interacts with the OS and built a compiler. I like to challenge myself into making devices work together and different OS's. Doing that will present new challenges, and you may get to do some Network programming. I also took up some freelance jobs and made some cash from that.

yes, runtime no errors.

Reason for my vote of 4
Very insightful.

My guess is that the reason this is happenin is because if it has to stretch the image its constantly remapping it then resizing it. If its a static size then theres none of that.

I will try that in a moment, I really appreciate your reply!

Everything that has been mentioned i have tried. Same error.

even if I delete the third value and fix it to what you mentioned, still fails. The error is "Invalid Syntax in INSERT INTO command".

as for the @ symbol, i got that off the web.

1.) I'm checking to make sure the Password matches the other Password TextBox, (textbox2, textbox3). then the last part im checking to see if textbox1 is not empty, i dont want to insert nothing into the database..

I'm using WPF, not sure if it really helps to know that but...
