Change tabpage text color

[rockdale]

Hi, All

How can I change the text forecolor or backcolor of a tabpage, sounds
like does not supported in .net CF.

I have a tab color with 5 tabpages and some textboxes in those tabpages
are mandatory fields. If the user did not enter anything in these
textbox, I will let him process to next tabpage but I want change the
tabpage text color to alert him that he has something left behind. Now
what I can do is put a "*" in front of the tabpage text, but it is not
distinguish enough. Does anybody have a work around for change tabpage
text color/backcolor?

Thanks in advance

I don't think anybody has worked around that... possibly a 3rd party
control...

In addition to your idea with the *, you could prevent the user form
switching tabs (and then optionaly change the color of the offending field
entry).
