[AccessD] Is it just me?

My opinion too. 

I often used the Tabs just to reduce the amount of info per page. I always wanted to use the Tree control too but it seemed so unsupported when it was supported that I never dared use it in production. 

Once in awhile I run into a DB app with forms that take studying just to figure out where one item is and my brain explodes and goes blank.

My guess - some developers are not familiar with the Tab control :)
