     Tabdock 3.1.3 Bugfix release (see revisions.rtf for full details) Two Major Improvements. 1) Extensively Updated. VS.Net Caption Style Now Adheres Closely To New Microsoft Applications. With Pinnable Panels And Tabs. 2) The Control Now Has The Option To Use The New ITDockMoveEvents Interface.(Have More Control Over Docked Panels). Panel Painting Is Now Much Better And Smoother. Too Many Updates To Mention. Please Look At The Revision RTF To Get The Full History Of The Control. On A Personal Note I Would Like To Thank Neal Who Has Put A Lot Of Effort Into This Control. Your Comments And Suggestions Are Greatly Appreciated. Enjoy The Code! Gary.

worse than ever. this version seems to 
be more unstable than previous ones -- 
it's falling all over the place. i 
think you guys are beating on a dead 
horse. my advise is to start from 
scratch but do it with usercontrols. 
it's very hard to get a proper behavior 
of VB Forms "sited" with SetParent -- 
trust me!
just my $.02 
worth,

This is just awesome.  I have been 
looking for something like this for a 
while.  I tried creating something 
similar using a custom control and 
picture boxes.  This is much nicer.

Vlad,
I'd be interested in the 
problems you seem to be having with the 
control as it has been tested 
extensively with NT and Windows Me (not 
the best I know) without any problems.

Is it possible to save all the user 
positions, states, sizes etc. and 
recreate the user's last layout when 
the program starts next?  If so, could 
you give a small example of how that 
can be accomplished?

Looking really nice. But you still need 
to be able to dock windows to the panel 
without creating the tabbed interface.  
The tabbed interface shouldn't be 
automatic but instead optional by 
dragging the form over a certain 
portion of a docked form. Otherwise it 
should dock as it previously did. Just 
my thoughts. 5 globes.

Also in response to the quesiton about 
remembering positions, use the 
persistant property however it 
apparently needs some fixing. If you 
have an undocked window and persistant 
is at false it will crash.  Something 
for you two to fix up :)

I am never surprised what Vlad would 
come up with a better qulity codes(he 
is one of few top programmers on 
PSC).But also respect what NR/GN have 
done.It did improve previous.It seems 
to work ok on windows XP.

well, you've probably checked this 
commercial attempt - 
http://innovasys.co.uk/products/dockstud
ioxp.asp. as far as i know their 
products is a VB created control. they 
had a lot of problems but slowly and 
painfully debugged the "monster".
i 
like the idea of a docking framework in 
VB. maybe at this stage tabdock needs 
more kind of a stabilizing release. the 
new features are neat but there are 
troubles with the foundation, 
IMHO.
i'm sorry about my previous 
probably a bit abrupt remark -- nothing 
personal! 
:-))
cheers,
</wqw>
p.s. ... 
and 10x for keeping the spirit of PSC

Nice work, really great. But I Still 
have one problem. After compiling the 
project into an ocx, I keep getting 
errors when closing miy application. In 
one off my docked forms I use a dsn 
less database connection. On closing my 
MDI Form the tabdock control is trying 
to run the form load routine in my 
docked form. This generates errors. 
Could anybody help me??

release.

WOW... impressive!
A MINOR bugs i 
notices while playing with in on Win2k. 
 let me see if i can describe it... the 
toolbar on the left is unpinned, (when 
it hides) and you select another tool 
bard to drag over the left toolbar, 
that drag pic leaves what i can best 
call a cursor turd... graphics drawn in 
the left side when it maximized...

As Vlad has said , Innovasys products 
are , as far as I know , developed in 
VB. I've used DocStudioXP and it's 
having too many features in it. Really 
I request NR/GN not to incorporate 
those many features in your OCX. Please 
leave something for me to do as well ! 
:)
Your current version is nice one. 
I faced one problem though ; dont know 
whether it's my VB 6.0 IDE problem or 
what. 
After few run of the program 
using your control , I get "ActiveX 
Component Can't create Object" and 
program doesn't move further. I need to 
re-reference the component and it goes 
well. I have tried re-register the 
component and still facing the 
same.
What can be the problem ? I 
couldn't figureout. It's not only on my 
PC but on every PC on which I installed 
(through setup made from Pack & Deploy 
Wiz) my program. 
If you can guide 
me , I'll be very thankful to you.
