Extra fields in my form??

[John]

Hello.

I have a form. When I go to "Tab Order", it gives me a list of which fields
are to be put in what order when you tab through the field.

The problem is that the first field in the list (when I autosort the list)
is "Child50".

Later in the list, there is also a "Child52".

I can't find these fields in the form even when I select each one and look
at it's properties.

Is there some way to search through a form for a specific fieldname and get
it highlighted so I can work with it?

Appreciate any help!

John

"Childnn" is the default name given to a subform. So I'm guessing that
you've got 2 subforms on your form. You should set them in the tab order;
unless you want them to gain focus before all other fields on your main
form, I'd put them last. You could also set the tab stop property on the
subform controls themselves to No; this would require your users to actually
click in the subforms to get to their fields.

HTH,
