Form field order
When preparing a protected form, how can I get the cursor to go from field to
field in the order I wish? I thought it would go in the order in which I placed the form fields, but that turned out not to be the case. The form I'm trying to complete is a table where the cursor should go to the right, then down, then to the right for the rest of the form. I'm sure I've read about this somewhere--perhaps from one of you--but I can't remember. Thanks for all you've done through the years to make me a better word processor! |

You are welcome. But note that I didn't write the article. :-)
