Default Tab Order for Multiple Entry Form. Vertical not horizontal tabbin

Hi there,

Does anyone know how to make the tab order go vertically along columns in a
multiple entry form?

It seems like that tabs will always goes along a row, so you have to tab
through every field in a row before it will tab to the next row.

I have already tried to do this through the tab order button in the arrange
tab, but it doesn't help.

If you don't need to tab into certain fields, you can open the form in design
mode. Open up Properties and go to the Other tab. Next click on the fields
that you don't want to tab into while holding the Shift key. Then change Tab
Stop to No.
