    Tab Index in Repeating Section

    I tried to search via Microsoft's knowledge database and community as well as the archives here but I could not find a question dealing specifically with this.

    Issue: Lets say you have 3 controls in a reapeating section. Each control gets a tab index (1-3). If the user repeats the section more than once, it will jump to each section following the tab order i.e., control1, control1, control1, control2, control2, control2, control3, ...
    As you can imagine, this can be very annoying on certain types of forms.

    Question: Is there a way to place in tab indexing so it stays within its section when indexing i.e., control1, control2, control3, control1, control2, control3...Can it be done without extracting the files?

    Thanks,

    Hi,

    To solve this problem you need to make the tab index value “0” for each control.

    I have questions listed in two columns.
    I would like the questions to still be tabbed so they go from top to bottom and I would like to control the order these questions are tabbed.

    Does Microsoft plan on addressing this?
