Creaing a wizard form

Hi all,

I recently moved from developing windows apps with Borland Builder to
Visual studio.net, With the Borland product I used to create wizards
using a tabcontrol, I would then add the pages i required and make the
tab for each page invisible, then when the user pressed next or back i
would move to the next or previous tab respectively. Since the tabs were
invisible they could not see them to click on them and it worked really
well.

Now I need to create a wizard in a .net app using c#, I put a tabcontrol
on my form and added a few pages to it but I can't seem to hide the
tabs, I've googled and found that you could remove the pages and only
add the one you wanted to view but this would still leave a tab at the
top of the form that they could see.

Is there a way round this or is there a better way to create a wizard
than this using .net and c#?

TIA

Joe

You might also want to take a look at the Genghis[1] project. They have a
wizard model that you can use, too, which works well.
