I have a tabcontrol with several tabpages and on some of the tabpages there are required fields that need to be filled out. I want to change the font and/or color of the tabpage name only and not all of the text on that page. I want to indicate to the user that there is missing data on a certain tabpage and they will be able to glance over all of the tabs and determine which one has missing data. I was able to change the text and add an * to the end of the tabpage name to use as an indicator, but it is hard to see and I thought it would be better to change the color like I do with a label when I set the backcolor property. Let me know if you have any ideas or another way to flag the user to a certain tabpage.

Thanks,
Tom
