SftTabs/OCX 6.5 - Tab Control for VB6

Buttons

A tab control with a single row of tabs (Tabs.Rows) offers optional scroll buttons, a Minimize button, a Restore button and a Close button.

Close, Minimize, Restore Button

The Close button, Minimize button and Restore button do not require the presence of scroll buttons. These buttons are optional and can be individually controlled.

The Close button can be used instead of a form's Close button or it can generate a Closing event, based on the Scrolling.CloseButtonAuto property. The Minimize and Restore buttons generate Minimizing and Restoring events.
