I want to add vb6's activeX control TABCTL.OCX into Win2000+Access2000.
But it can't use. I register it in Access2000, But can't find it in Insert
menu's ActiveX Control options. How to solve this problem. Thanks.

Just because it works in VB does not mean it'll work in Access.

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=208283 lists those Microsoft controls
that will work with Access, and tabctl.ocx isn't on that list.

http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=202104 lists what ActiveX interfaces must
exist in before Access can use a control, and which cannot exist for Access
to be able to use it.

Maybe one of these days it'll all be seamless...

Why not use the MS Access built in Tab control?
