ExpressPageControl™

The ExpressPageControl - shipped with the ExpressQuantumGrid Suite - allows you to introduce advanced tabbed interfaces into your Windows® applications. Whether you need an individual page for each tab or you need tabs that update the content of the same controls, the ExpressPageControl offers a solution to meet your business needs.

Built on our shared libraries, the ExpressPageControl seamlessly integrates with other Developer Express VCL controls and provides you with a consistent API and appearance options.
