Mike is correct of course. Sometimes though, it is either inconvenient or
counterproductive to re-order the fields. You can always trap the tabKey
message and explicitly select the text of the field you want:
on tabKey
select the text of fld "yourNextField"
end tabKey
Put this in all the fields in your tab order and designate the one to follow.

Subject: Data-Entry in a LiveCode form using the tab key
I have constructed a form in LiveCode; I want to complete the data
entry in each field by using the tab key. Is there a way to reconfigure the
"tab sequence" of fields so that as one tabs and then types in the data, one
progresses through each field sequentially throughout the form?
Thanks,
Ed Denes
