I'm trying to implement a custom TabControl so that I can do my own
painting. I've already implemented a TabPage replacement with no problems,
however, when I create a control inherited from
System.Windows.Forms.TabControl, overriding OnPaint & OnPaintBackground
seems to have no effect. Any tips or ideas? Does anyone know of an example
custom TabControl I can use for reference?

Thanks,
Robert

Disregard this message; I overlooked OwnerDrawFixed!
