get tab names from a table

I'm using a "Tab Control" to  display separate platforms... I would like to gather the name for each tab from a list table the user creates before running the main app. Just not sure how to make this happen if it can at all.
 
Thanks,
 
Pete

almost... other way around, want to take the table and display on the tabs. I see how you got the tab name to the table but just don't see the the opposite.

If I understand you correctly. you want to change the Label of the Tab Pages from the user-created-list.
 
No, thats not possible in LV. What I mean you cannot write to a Label property at run-time & change its string.
You can change the caption at run-time, but the Tab control's Page Caption property is not present to do this sort of a thing.
You can nly change the Caption of the Tab control on the whole, not of the Tab's individual Pages.

Hi Mike,

Thank you very much for showing me the light, which I thought was non-existent all these days. Smiley Happy
