Setting the width of a tab control

When I drop a tab control on a form, I'm unable to set it's width property.
At always wants to be as wide as the form. It won't let me set the width
in the property in the property box, and dropping the tab control into a
panel will only limit the visible portion of the tab control, it still is
wide as the form. I need a tab control that is half as wide as the form.
Any ideas?

In .NET Compact framework, you cannot set the width of tab control

Drop a Panel on the form and size it according to your wishes.
Then drop a TabControl in the Panel...

Cheers
