Re: in new Blend there isn't tabcontrol or tabitem???

The new tab controls are not located in the Silverlight plug-in itself, they are in the SDK instead.  In Visual Studio 2008 you need to add a reference to System.Windows.Controls.Extended to the Silverlight project and build it.  Then in Expression Blend 2.5 the tab controls are available on the Custom Controls tab of the asset library.

Hope this helps,

1) If you are in Visual Studio go to solution explorer right click your project then click Add Reference or right click References then  add references choose System.Windows.Controls.Extended click ok.Build Project then add namespace

xmlns:T="clr-namespace:System.Windows.Controls;assembly=System.Windows.Controls.Extended"

 to your page.xaml then ypu can get TabControl in page.xaml as

<T:TabControl>

      <T:TabItem />

</T:TabControl>

2) If you are in expression blend then click project and add references or click references and then click add references...go to C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Silverlight\v2.0\Libraries\Client choose System.Windows.Controls.Extended.  Then go to asset library in toolbat go to custom controls....you have a TabControl.
