Hi all,
I'm here again.

I need some way to do multipage on a window.

I seen TestPage and TestTab examples but them don't fit my needs.

TestPage is built on resources and i prefere avoid resources, is
possible build it without res and full screen?

TestTab is fine, but have not TTabs attached, and i don't seen TTab
source. How can i build multipage with TabControl must i hide and show
controls or there are a better way?

The last question is about Menus. Can i build a menu without resources?

Many thanks.
Claudio

Claudio,

> Can i build a menu without resources ?

There is no way to create a main pulldown menu without resources. Windows Mobile does not allow it.

So if you need a main menu, and then you need to use resources, you may be able to use resources for testpage sample. Its the easiest way

Many thanks Antonio.

Which Resources Editor people are using?

Is something wrong in using TabControl and show() and hide()
controls on tab change? maybe the loading time?

Best regards

Claudio,

You can use Borland Resources Workshop. Also PellesC free IDE includes one quite popular.

The way to do it is to hide/show an entire dialog, or it gets very slow.
