Tab Control On A Form

[Bill Mills]

I have a form with a tab control on it. The tab has 4
pages. The tab index for the entire tab control is 7. I
am trying to set the tab index for several combo boxes and
text boxes on each tab so that when you hit the tab key,
it goes to the next combo or text box. The problem is
that the tab index won't stay. I enter a particular
number and as soon as I move to the next property, it
changes the tab index to some other number. Has anyone
else seen this. The tab now jumps all around the page on
the individual page. Any suggestions would be greatly
appreciated.

My guess is that you're trying to set the tab index to a number that's
already in use.

Open the tab order listbox window (View | Tab Order) and set the order of
the controls there.
