This is an issue with the drawing routine the control uses, so that ampersands are interpreted as underscores (like when you do &File for the caption of a CommandButton). The workaround is to double up the ampersands, i.e. use AC && R instead.

Probably the control should respond to keyboard mnemonics correctly, like the Explorer Bar control.

I'm trying to make a tab with caption "AC & R" which contains ampersand char, but the result displays "AC _R". It seems that the char becomes a mnemonic. This also happens with the other tab controls (vbalMDITabs6.DLL and vbalTab6.OCX).
