Property	Description
Tab Location	The tabs are displayed along one of the sides within the control: Top, Bottom, Left, or Right.
Tab Orientation	The orientation of the tabs and their caption. Horizontal - Tab and caption is displayed horizontally, which is most easily readable on screen, but takes up much space for tabs located at the top or bottom. Vertical - Tab and caption is rotated 90 degrees in either direction, depending on the Tab Location setting. This option can save space horizontally, but may be more difficult to read. This option is only available for multi line tab style.
Tab Style	Specifies how tabs are arranged when the total width or height of them exceeds that of the control. Multi Line - If there are too many tab headers to fit on a single line, the headers are arranged in multiple lines. As a result, all tab headers are displayed on the screen. Single Line - If there are too many tab headers to fit, scroll buttons are displayed. As a result, all tab headers can be made available by scrolling to the tabs that are not currently visible.
Allow Set Default Tab Sheet	Allows individual users to specify which tab sheet is default active when opening the form. If enabled, the users can right click on any of the tabs and select Set as Default.
