[Solved] Tabbing between form elements

[tcrabb]

Tabbing behaviour seems a bit strange.

I have a table and below it I have text fields, combos, date fields and a check box below it on the same form - if you place the cursor in the text box and try to tab it will bypass the combos and the check box but jump to the date fields ok before jumping the cursor up into the top table.

If you place the cursor back at the combo it will tab through the combos but missthe normal text boxes and date fields before jumping into the check box.

Is there a work around for this?

I would like users to be able to tab through form elements as the lie on the page as you would expect for example when tabbing within a web page.

Any suggestions welcome.

First you check all elements where not stops, on Properties, General tab,Tabstop, Yes.
You can change tab order use Form Design Toolbar, open Form Navigator, right click on Main Form, select Tab Order..., it will list all elements what you can use for input.

I'm learning something new every day.
