Is it possible to modify the order of the attribute fields that the tab key will skip you to when pressed?

Currently, the one I am using skips to the fields in the order that they were created, but that does not match the ideal that we would like (prefer sequential tabbing rather than hopping all over the profile card).

Hi... You can use change the propertie "Tab Order" using the "Form Designer", or if you can use a better tool for that, find it on http://plmdb.smartuserforum.com/phpBB2/ on "tools" post there is a tool called "CopyForm for V5R14-V5R16 VB6 based". We tested on R17 and works OK.

A lesson learned from experience:
Set the "Tab Order" (I thought it was "Tab Index", but either way...) with gaps.
For example: field 1 is tab order 1, field 2 is tab order 3, field 3 is tab order 5, etc.
This saves time later if you need to "insert" a field in the middle.
You can make bigger gaps as well...I used 1,5,10,15...
Have fun!
