text form field tab order

P

pcnetworks

I have set up several text field form fields on a document, need to know how
to change the tab order of the fields. When I protect the form, they do not
tab in the correct order I wish for them to do. Cannot find how to reset them
or what I need to do to change this.

Tabbing order goes across the page and then down to the next line and
then across again.

You can use tables for slightly improved control of the tabbing order.
All fields in one table cell will come before those in the next cell.

For even more control you could use entry/exit macros for
activating/deactivating fields, or to jump directly from one to the
other. Beware that this approach could leave the user locked out of some
fields if the form is not carefully designed.
