Access Form Controls: Coloured Tabs For Your MS Access Forms

Working with Ms Access form controls may not always be as flexible as one would like and a particular control that comes to mind is the Tab Control. I have often been asked about if you can add a splash of colour and other formats to the Tab Control and the simple answer is not really as you are left with the empty and grey dull look and feel for tabs and their pages.
