Hi,
I would like to know if it is possible to get the rect of the
tab of a tab control - I mean the rect where you click on to
change the tab sheet. I am using a TPageControl and I am sure
there is no way to get the coordinates by means of VCL. Hence,
as this control is originally a Windows control, I am asking
here. The reason why I need this is: I want the control to be
automatically drawn (no OwnerDraw style) with icon and text.
Thus the width of the tabs differ (they are calculated by the 
system to be wide enough to show icon and text). Now I want to 
know if a user clicked in the icon or beside it.

TIA.
Thorsten.
