I have a general question - when you write tabbed dialog boxes, do you
prefer to use Property sheets or code the box by hand (i.e. manually adding
in the tab control etc.).

Are property sheets easy to use? I'm trying to get a feel as to if I'm the
only person who is doing it by hand, and if I'm making too much work for
myself in the process :)

Thanks,

Property Sheets are easier to use because the interface to switch the
dialogs are already written for you (the other way isn't too much work
either but still i guess 20 extra lines of code is still 20 lines!). The
only thing about the property sheet is that you don't have much control over
the appearance of the Sheet, you can only define the pages!.
