I tried using LinkButtons and was still not able to get tabbing to work:
<mx:HBox tabChildren="true">
<mx:Label text="1." />
<mx:LinkButton label="A" tabIndex="0" tabEnabled="true" />
<mx:LinkButton label="B" tabIndex="1" tabEnabled="true" />
<mx:Label text="2." />
<mx:LinkButton label="C" tabIndex="2" tabEnabled="true" />
<mx:LinkButton label="D" tabIndex="3" tabEnabled="true" />
</mx:HBox>
