i am trying to make a quiz using Visual c++
I am trying to make it so that each tab has a different question and when you press a button it goes to the next tab. Is there a way to do this?
If not is there another way i could do it?
I have considered trying to use different panels for each question and disabling each on and enabling other for each set of questions so this could be my second option is tabs fail.
Thank you.
A bit more info may be required. Are you using MFC or .NET with C++?
If MFC, are you using CTabCtrl?
I've no idea what level you're at but in simple terms you create a button click handler, inside which you:
- query the tab control to find out the index of the currently selected tab
- increment this to the next tab index (check that you haven't got to the end)
- select the new tab in the tab control.
The principle is the same whether you're using MFC or .NET.

Thank's for the reply. I am not quite sure which but i am using Visual C++ 2008 Express. The code is:
