I have spent some time bashing my head against this same bug in 
1.9.2.  (That is the newest release; I don't think Benoit uses 
cvs at all, and if he does it's not public.)  It's easy to 
reproduce: create a form, add a tabstrip to it, put something 
else in the tabstrip (maybe that's not even necessary), save the 
form, close Gambas, reopen Gambas, reopen the form, and the 
tabstrip is gone.  Or, just save the form and then look at its 
.form file.  This makes 1.9.2 unusable for anything but fairly 
simple forms (luckily, my Import VB Project form was quite 
simple.)
