well there are two things, one is a controlBar with buttons in it, and when tabbed the first button will be highlighted then it will just move onto the next text box in the VBox rather than the other buttons in the controlBar. I haven't implented the below, so I was just using the default settings. I then tried telling flex to make them all true but the program tabbed in the same way.
The other custom component is a mxml file that contains a dateField and a text box. this get skiped altoghter when tabbing. thanks --- In [email protected], "JesterXL" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Does it extend UIComponent (or a sub-class)?
