Control : TabList 
The TabList control enables you to display multiple forms in the same area of another form, one at a time.

Overview
Typically, you display different forms in the tabbed area of your user interface using a DynamicForm control tied to a collection of objects. The currently selected tab determines which object's form is currently visible. You use an adapter interface to set the form to be displayed on a tab. The collection represented by the tabs can contain any kind of object, as long as the object implements an adapter interface. You must also define a field to be bound to the selected tab, so the Tablist can be passed a reference to the object to be displayed.
To specify the labels that appear on the tabs, enter a semicolon-separated list in the Tab Labels property. Selecting a tab in the TabList changes the value of the field to which the control is bound. This field can be monitored for change, and you can program other controls to update their content based on the value of the field.
