I can\'t seem to find an answer for this anywhere. An icon before the label on the default tabcontrol tabs would suffice for my needs.
Thanks in advance.
It is a built-in feature of the TabControl. Drop an ImageList on the form and fill it with your icons. Set the TabControl.ImageList property. For each tab page, set the ImageIndex property.
Drag and drop an imageList from the toolbox on the winform and add images to collection from property window. Add a tabcontrol and Set the TabControl.ImageList property. Set the ImageIndex property for each tab page. see example http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7E6xJyd6KM
