When I run my app (D7 Pro) on SBS2008 64bit the tab captions on my
TPageControl do not appear.
The code is trivial ie
begin
with control as TPageControl, canvas do begin

Include this unit to your project, it will patch this bug. I don't remember where I've found it :-)

Thankyou VERY much for helping me out here - I had googled my a.. off
    looking for information on this bug.
    Cheers
    

I'm adding my thanks to Mr. Christiansen's.
  On my new Windows 7 64-bit Dell, the PageControl OwnerDraw wasn't working, even though in theory it should have (OwnerDraw was set True, I had a PageControl1DrawTab procedure, and the OnDrawTab even was pointing to it. Yet the breakpoint I set in the procedure never got triggered, nor did the tabs have their Caption property set by my code).
  After a fair amount of Googling (and head-scratching), I came upon this post, and Voila, problem solved!!!!
  Thank you so much...:-)
  Regards,

I know this is a very old thread however, i have just recently had to dust off some old D7 code and found that i did NOT have the captions showing for the TextPageControl. i too looked and looked for a solution and fnally found this one - and it works GREAT!! thank you so much for leaving this solution hanging around so it could be found!

Thanks a lot for providing this! Been like a week scratching my head over this. Out of a sudden this also made JVPageControl work too. A much needed patch in fact!
