Newbie question...

[John Jones]

I've been asked to modify a C#.NET app without much exposure to the Visual
Studio 2003 IDE and I have a question.

I'm looking at a container object called a Tab Group that has about 6 tabs,
each with text input boxes and combo-box dropdowns, etc. I can see the form
(.aspx file), but cannot graphically access all of the tabs in order to edit
their contents. I can also view the HTML behind the C# page and there I can
see the individual input components and their bindings to database columns.

My question is: Is there some other part of the IDE that allows me to
graphically change the composition and layout of these tabs or is that
something that I need to do in the HTML code?

Hi,

I've been asked to modify a C#.NET app without much exposure to the Visual
Studio 2003 IDE and I have a question.

I'm looking at a container object called a Tab Group that has about 6
tabs,

TabControl you mean?

each with text input boxes and combo-box dropdowns, etc. I can see the
form
(.aspx file), but cannot graphically access all of the tabs in order to
edit
their contents. I can also view the HTML behind the C# page and there I
can
see the individual input components and their bindings to database
columns.

There is nothing like a TabControl in the ASP.NET space (at least in 1.1) ,
R u using a third party control?

My question is: Is there some other part of the IDE that allows me to
graphically change the composition and layout of these tabs or is that
something that I need to do in the HTML code?

It does depend of the control I think, Try to view the aspx file in design
view ( a little button in the botton left side fo the window)
