How to dynamically assign event handler to tab page's tab header
posted

This is how I'm adding tab pages into my controls:

 childTabControl.Tabs.Add(tabName, tabName);

I would like to raise a click event to say.. display the tab name in a message box once I click the tab, how do I do that?

    You could get this quickly through the GetContext method call of the UIElement of the control:

    private void ultraTabControl1_MouseClick(object sender, MouseEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.Button != MouseButtons.Left)
            return;

        UltraTab tab = this.ultraTabControl1.UIElement.LastElementEntered.GetContext(typeof(UltraTab)) as UltraTab;
        if (tab != null)
            MessageBox.Show(tab.Text);
    }
