After adding a new field to my form, how do I get the cursor to move (tab) to
each field as it is laid out on the form instead of jumping around the page?

Open the form in design view and then open the following:

View-->Tab Order

Click the AutoOrder button and/or move controls up and down the list until
you are satisfied.

Open the form in design view, in the menu bar select View > Tab Order
You can either click the Auto arange button on the buttom, or arrange the
order of the fields by click and drag

That is the tab index property. Watch out because changing one might affect
the ones below it. This property is easy to find and change though. ;-)
