DON'T SHOUT. Using all capitals is considered shouting on the internet, and rude (using all lower case is considered childish). Use proper capitalisation if you want to be taken seriously.

Im having a hard time understanding why you just dont use the Tab control as they are.... If there is some code block you want to execute you could simply do this in tab got focus (or I dont know the ekvivalent in WindowsForms)

I agree. And in Forms this is very simple to do. OP's idea is just the impossible abuse, should not be implemented.

You can't disable tabs. The only thing you can do to stop a user from selecting a tab is to remove the TabPage from the control and readd it when it's valid to do so.

Agree. Besides, OP's idea on the UI design is such an abuse... My 5.

It's derived from a lack of using Windows applications. There are just things you don't see done in other applications, but because of a lack of innovation but because it's just stupid.
