The control with the TabOrder<br /> value of 0 is the control that has the focus when the form<br /> first appears.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Initially, the tab order is always the order in which the<br /> controls were added to the form. The first control added to<br /> the form has a TabOrder value of 0, the second is 1, the<br /> third is 2, and so on. Change this by changing the TabOrder<br /> property.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Each control has a unique tab-order value within its parent.<br /> If you change the TabOrder property value of one control to<br /> be the same as the value of a second control, the TabOrder<br /> value for all the other controls changes. For example,<br /> suppose a control is sixth in the tab order. If you change<br /> the control's TabOrder property value to 3 (making the<br /> control fourth in the tab order), the control that was<br /> originally fourth in the tab order now becomes fifth, and the<br /> control that was fifth becomes sixth.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Assigning TabOrder a value greater than the number of<br /> controls contained in the parent control moves the control to<br /> the end of the tab order. The control does not take on the<br /> assigned value of TabOrder, but instead is given the number<br /> that assures the control is the last in the tab order.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Note: TabOrder is meaningful only if the TabStop property is<br /> true and if the control has a parent. (The TabOrder property<br /> of a form is not used unless the form is the child of another<br /> form.) A control with a TabOrder of -1 has no parent, and<br /> therefore cannot be reached by pressing the Tab key. To<br /> remove a parented control from the Tab order, set its TabStop<br /> property to false.</div>
