Hello,

I am working on an app written in VB6.
I try to set the tab-order properties of the controls embedded in a
form on the following way : (the form is a login form, with one text
zone for user name and one text zone for password, and two buttons (OK
and Cancel))

- txtUserName TabIndex = 0, TabStop = true
- txtPasswordValue TabIndex = 1, TabStop = true
- btnOK TabIndex = 2, TabStop = true
- btnCancel TabIndex = 3, TabStop = true

But when I run the programme, and use the form, the tabOrder goes to :

txtUserName
btnOK
btnCancel
txtPasswordValue

So my question is how to set correctly the tabOrder in my form.

FYI, when I try to use the "Tabulation Assistant" included in VB6, I
notice that I get a yellow triangle with an exclamation mark next to
each control of the form (indicating an error). Can that explain why
the TabOrder does not work properly ? What kind of errors are there in
the controls then ?

Thank you !
