Re: PDF Field Order Question?

["Mike Starr" <mikestarr-techwr-l -at- writestarr -dot- com>]

Not being an Acrobat forms guy, I can only guess but try this... right-click 
field number 7 and pick properties (that's how it works in VBA). Assuming 
you see a properties sheet for the text field, there's probably a tab 
sequence property for it. Change it's tab sequence property to 7.
