  ok....how the heck do I resize the client area of a TabPage control?Apparently not as simple as it sounds....Using TabPages in a TabControl, all created with VS08 designer....but it creates an enormous "border" (non-client area) on the TabPage that's completely useless, and I'll be damned if I can figure out how to resize the TabPage client area.SO...it seems that the framework is overriding my attempts to resize the client area?  In which case I need to create a derived TabPage class and override the event that is forcing the default TabPage client size (I think?)?  So I tried this:  protected override void OnResize(EventArgs e){ClientSize = new Size(50,50);}, but it doesn't affect the client area of the TabPage.  Anyone?  Thanks!   
  Write a custom TabControl (instead of a custom TabPage) which does not have the excess border.  It shouldn't be very difficult.  All a TabControl really does is hide/show child controls.   ;  Strange.  What's it look like in the form designer?   ;  I discovered that this is only an issue if you use a "Button style" tab control.I couldn't quickly figure out how to attach a picture, but if you create a Button style Tab Control in either VS05 or VS08 designer you'll immediately see what I'm talking about.
