Adding WindowsForms to TabPages

Hi!

I'm co-developing a WindowsForms app with multiple forms residing
inside a mainform (MdiParent). Using C# and VS .NET 2005.

Problem. We would like to be able to open multiple forms, each form on
a separate TabPage, making it easy to navigate between the forms.
However, it is apparently not possible to add a WindowsForm to the
Controls or TopLevelControl.Controls collection of a TabPage.

Searching the web, I came across a suggestion
(http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread270457.html). But the idea of
transforming all our existing WindowsForms to UserPanels makes this
very unatractive.

Further, I found a 3.rd party framework that offers this functionallity
-- a "Tabbed MDI Package"
(http://www.syncfusion.com/products/product.aspx?p=7&tab_id=0).
However, the price tag is out of our range.

So, is there anyone that have suggestions to a different alternative?

Thanks!
