The TabStripPlacement option allows you to place the tab strip at the top, bottom, or with the horizontal scrollbar. The TabStripPolicy drop-down sets whether the sheet tabs are displayed all the time, when needed, or not at all. The TabStripRatio sets the width of the tab strip expressed as a percentage of the overall horizontal scroll bar width. You can also set the backcolor and set colors and fonts for the active or default tabs. When done click OK.
