   "The SSTab control has a nice feature of allowing you to switch tabs and   
   place controls at runtime, but this comes at a price. When you change   
   tab, the controls aren't actually hidden, but moved a long way off to   
   the left. This has the undesired side affect of keeping them in the tab   
   order and accessible (although out of sight)"
