Simple tab control   Message List

This is a real newbie question! Using this table:
Key alpha 10
Data alpha 1000

How do you use a tab such that the tab is labeled with Key and the body of
the tab shows Data? Tabs could surely not be more simple than that! There
would be a tab for each record in the file and the whole thing is dynamic,
depending on the table.
