How to disable a tab page

[tiff]

Hi everyone,

I have created a sheet (from CPropertySheet) that has in it 2 tab pages (from CPropertyPage), namely, m_tab1 and m_tab2.

How may one disable the entire tab (for example, m_tab1)? such that the entire m_tab1 is grayed out, and inactive? (not just disabling each item in the tab)

Please help.

Thank you very much.

Why would disabling a tab be necessary? Unless you have a good reason, it is better to hide the tab rather than disable it. An inaccessible yet visible tab is a waste of space.

I've seen in MS Office products for example, in certain options, there are multiple tabs. Some of the tabs are inactive & grayed out while others are not, depending on the need for use at that point. The same thing is seen also when clicking Menu items. So I try to learn how it's done.

If anyone has further inputs, please let me know.

Thanks everyone for your replies.

hello

I dont know if this is possible but allow me to state my case

I have an SDI application with tab ctrl, if you click a button on tab1 the other tabs cannot be click , on this case only a certain button is applicable to be click.

Is there a way to disable the tab?
