Hi Greg,
Anyone know how to adjust the tab order on the forms created in Word or know
which newsgroup would?
It can be done without macros (I get really tired of people saying that's the
only way <grrr>).

Use FRAMES (from the Forms toolbar) to position and group your form fields.
(the order will be left-to-right, top-to-bottom *within* the frame).

Insert the frames in the order you want the tab order to be. And it's best to
anchor each frame to its own paragraph, since the order of the anchors is
really what influences the tab order.
