Hi
I'm trying to create a template where the user just has to enter
details into fields, I have managed to do most of it and created the
fields by using the developer tab and creating text form fields and
drop down form fields, but what I would really like to do is just
click on the first field and tab between the rest, however when I try
to do do this the cursor just moves along the same line.

Any help would be appreciated

Thanks in advance

Bryan


After you create the fields but before you start filling them, you have to
click the Protect Document button (also on the Developer ribbon) and choose
protection for forms. That "turns on" the fields and lets you tab among
them.
