Hi Ed

Rightclick the userform, select Tab order and do your things there.
Note that Frames, multipages and other containers need individual treatment.

When I create a new form the tabbing order seems to get set according to
the order in which the coltrols are inserted. However, if I later decide I
have to put in a new control in then middle of the ones created earlier
the resulting tabbing order is jumbled when the form is used. So, I seek
to revise the order so tabbing goes from top to bottom and from left to
right.

The problem is if I reset the TabIndexes in the properties sheet they
don't stick. I.e., if I change the TabIndex for a control for 23 to 2,
then 14 to 3, etc, when I go back to those controls later the tab indices
have changed to something else. How do I force it to keep the indicies I
assign?

TIA

Ed
