Hi, Rob, I don't have that problem at all - if I understand you correctly.
I have about six tabs always open and keep them in a particular order. Now, if I am on, say the first of those tabs and open a saved report, the report opens a new tab under (or beside, depending on where you keep your tabs) the tab I am in, and moves all the other open tabs down (or right). If I want the report to open at the bottom (or right) of the open tabs, I click on the bottom (or right) tab first.
Often I have to go to Accounts tab to open an account that I usually keep closed and the new tab opens (of course) below the Accounts tab. If the Accounts tab is at the top, the new tab open below it and shuffles all the already open tabs down. Answer is to keep the Accounts tab at the bottom.

I have spent my whole business life in accounting. I don't know about the rest of you but, to me, accounting means STABILITY! I like to know where I am financially, I like stability, plus a little earning here and there. In the financial world, accurate reporting is stability. I don't like my accounting category TABs dancing around like they are at a drunken teenage party. Does anyone out there know how to make the TABs I have choosen to alway be displayed of: checking, savings, investments, and liabilities to stay in a STABLE ORDER as I like them arranged? Maybe a nice little check box in the Edit - Preferences - Windows - Tab - Saying "Allow TABs to move? Yes No" would be nice!
