Mysterious tabbing problem

I have a subform datasheet view connected to a form by an ID. The tab order
is set correctly in the subform and works 90% of the time when people tab
from one form into another. However, occasionally once they arrive in the
subform datasheet it skips a couple fields and they have to click back. Any
idea what is causing this mysterious action?
 
I can think of three reasons why you might jump two fields, in it wont move
in the right order:

1. The TAB order of the fields, which I assume from your you checked and
it's OK

2. The TabStop Property of this fields is set to No

3. On the AfterUpdate/Lost Focus or any other event of the field there is a
code that set the focus to another field:

Me.[FieldName].SetFocus
 
Thank You!
