I have in WinForm Tabcontrol I have a Tabcontrol with 6 TabPages and two Buttons.
The First Button 'Next' and another Button 'Back'.
When I click 'Next' I want to go to next TabPage, when I click Back I want to go to the previous TabPage.

How do that By TabIndex for TabPage....

Really,

from microsoft docs about TabIndex property:

TabPage controls are contained within TabControl controls, however, and do not receive focus individually as part of the form's TAB order. This property is therefore meaningless for this class.

So use SelectedIndex :

Next button :

yourTabControl.SelectedIndex += (yourTabControl.SelectedIndex == 5 ? 0 : 1);

Back button :

yourTabControl.SelectedIndex -= (yourTabControl.SelectedIndex == 0 ? 0 : 1);

+5. One suggestion, however is that instead of the hardcoded "== 5" to use " < yourTabControl.TabPages.Count"
