ending the tab order

[Benet]

Here is a quickie,

How can i bring the tab order to an end so it does not go round and start again at tab 1. I remenber reading something about hiding a field as the last tab, ive tried it but either the field accepts data input and makes a mess or i have it to not accept data and it shows an ugly "you cant put data in here" message. ?

On the same subject, but less important is there an easy way to tab onto the next "tab layout".

i cant for the life of me think why Fm uses the same word for 2 concepts within its package but i think you get the idea.

Thanks

Ben

A script trigger plugin could do it.

You can put the tab object in the tab order, but after you tab into it you use the arrow keys to navigate to the next tab panel.

My version of FileMaker uses English. Why English uses different meanings for the same word is indeed a puzzle.

Thanks very much Fitch.

That should do nicely.
