Windows Forms Disabled Text

[gareth]

Hi,

I'm trying to modify the tabCrontrol so I can enable/disable tabs. I've
got it all working except it doesn't look like I want it to.

When a tab is disabled I want the text to look like a disabled button's
text (indented grey?).

Is there a simple way to do this (is there a "disabled" font??) or do I
have to overlay the grey text over the top of the white??

Thanks

Gareth
