Tab Control Buggy in VS 2003?

[Daniel Moth]

This is a known issue please search the archives. The workaround is to set
the tab order with your code and not rely on the designer generated code:

here is the problem i experience using the Tab Control in VS 2003. can
anybody tell me if these are know issues? and are there updates to the Tab
Control from MS that will get rid of these problems?

problems crop up when the number of tab pages necesssitates a horizontal
'scroll' to grant access to all the tab pages. in other words, when the
combined width of the 'tabs' is greater than the display width of my form...
and thus, not all selection tabs are visible. once this condition is
present, weird things begin to occur. such as.... the tab pages
occassionally(often) rearrange themselves and therefore their index value
within the tab page collection changes. well, my code expects each tab page
to be at the index were it was positioned during development. is this too
much to expect? anybody offer any insight into what is going on here? i
know i can choose a different method to get what i want. but i am really
growing tired of having to code work arounds.
