It is possible to organize content of long Insert, Edit and View forms more effectively using tabs. Tabs provide an easy and powerful mechanism to handle huge amount of content within a small area through separating content into different sheets. Only one sheet can be seen at a time.

Use the OnGetCustomFormLayout event to enable tabs on a form and to distribute related input controls in the appropriate tab sheets. Five different tab styles are supported. Each of Insert, Edit and View forms in this example uses its own tab style.

The layout of each tab sheet can be customized just like a layout of a simple (non tabbed) form. Click the button to see how tabbed forms implemented for the example below.
