Hi all
I want to, with a click of a button add a new tab that contains a preset amount of objects - 2 Labels, 2 buttons ("Add" and "X"). The "Add" button will insert a checkbox and a textbox next to it.
The attached file will bring clarity to my explanation.

The code that I have is as follows:
First of all, when I click the big grey Add button, Visual Studio gives the following error:
An unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in System.Windows.Forms.dll
Additional information: Cannot add 'Label' to TabControl. Only TabPages can be directly added to TabControls.
Let's first stop here for now.
Thanks in advance for your help!!
