Fields don't have a tab order. Controls do. Make your job easier by changing the name of each control so that you know what field it's displaying. Do this on each control's Properties dialog.

Hollis,
Got it, thank you! This is fun!
One more question. How do I make the tab button go in the correct order? I
can right click and select "Tab Order", but the dialog box lists "Label1,
TextBox1, Label2, TextBox2, etc" instead of my user defined fields.
Confusing... Any suggestions?

All you do bring up a new instance of the form and do the Tools - Forms bit. I
think it is the next step when you get to choose between "design this form" or
"choose a form to design". Select the first choice. Now, when it comes to
publishing your changes, always use Save As and choose as name such as
MyForm_ver002. Putting the version number in the form name prevents all forms
cache problems, and gives you a good way of saving at least three generations of
the form. Use one of the utilities to change the names of the items in the old
form name to the new form name plus version number.
