Thanks for the code Chris but that didn't seem to help.
This doesn't look like a Compact Framework bug. I'd bet on a Visual Studio
IDE bug. When I look at the generated code I can see that Visual Studio is
changing the order around in the code as well. I suppose we could call it a
bug in the SetChildIndex function that is not switching the tabs around to
the order we specify - but screwing the tabs up in the first place I can
probably blame the IDE...
I have all the latest updates so I am at a impasse. The only thing I can do
that works is to close down designer view for the form, open up the code
view. Find the place where the code adds the tabs. Put it in the correct
order. Then do my build. This works until I open design view again...
Thanks again - and if anyone else has a suggestion I'd love to hear it...
