Default How to Change/Customize the Form Entry Flow

Greetings. I'm not a heavy Word user. I have a table with a form field
text box in each cell.

How do you set which field it goes to next in Word?
For example, user enters data in first field, then hits TAB and it moves
to the next field below it.

My problem is that when a user hits tab, it's following the Table's
left-right-down flow.

Thanks for any info you can provide.

Ok, I've got it working, but now it's stuck in a loop and the user cannot
click on the next section of fields to enter data.
I have 5 sections each with it's own tab order macro. Where to I insert an
end on MouseClick or something along those lines.
