I'm not sure what you ask... but with F12 you can switch between code and design mode.

this question is about how to make visible this tab?

If you press F12 does not mean that form appears on ta, it could appear as a floating window
save this lines to file named fix2007tab.reg

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Borland\BDS\5.0\Form Design]
"Embedded Designer"="True"

Open in new window


...and run....
restart ide
There's an option in the Ide Tools menu.
If I remember right, in Delphi 2007 it's under Environment Options – VCL Designer
There should be an option called Embedded designer. If so check it and restart the IDE
