Here is what i have come up with for creating tabcontrol and pages at runtime in vb2005

Dim i As Integer

Dim temp As TabControl() = New TabControl(1) {}

Dim SComp2 As String() = Nothing

Dim CNT As Integer = 0

temp(CNT) = New TabControl

temp(CNT).Name = sString(3)

temp(CNT).Location = New System.Drawing.Point(Val(sString(5)), Val(sString(6)))

temp(CNT).Size = New System.Drawing.Size(Val(sString(7)), Val(sString(8)))

temp(CNT).Tag = Val(sString(2))

'temp(CNT).TextAlign = ContentAlignment.MiddleCenter

'temp(CNT).ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black

'temp(CNT).BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.LightSalmon

SComp2 = sString(4).Split(";")

For i = 0 To SComp2.GetUpperBound(0)

temp(CNT).TabPages.Add(SComp2(i))

Next i

For Each ctrl As Control In SplitContainer1.Panel1.Controls

If TypeOf ctrl Is GroupBox Then

If CType(ctrl, GroupBox).Tag = Val(sString(1)) Then

CType(ctrl, GroupBox).Controls.Add(temp(CNT))

End If

End If

Next
