Tab Control - change page name and color

[Michel]

a)
Is there any possibility to
change the names of pages in a Tab Control programmatically?
(I want to change the names in a runtime version depending on the user
selected language. Therefore I can't use the Import Strings function.)

b)
Is it possible to change the colors of a Tab Control ?

Michel,

This is what I know (or think I know) about Tab Controls in regards to your Q (I'm open, of course, to any correcting info)...

Because Tab Control names are of enum type, they are read only - so you can't rename them programmatically.
As for colors, you can only change the Label text & background colors, but not the tab controls.

Hello,

If you use the property "Independant Label" of the tab, you can change the TabCaption.

You cannot use blank names.
