6. Define tab order. Tab order controls the order in which elements are selected when the Tab key
is pressed. Tab order applies to tab controls, frames, labels, user-editable text boxes, option
buttons, check boxes, combo boxes, and buttons. There is no default tab order in the display.
Use either of the following methods to define tab order:
• For each element, enter the desired tab order in the Tab Order field in the Properties edit
box.
• Click the Tab-Key Order icon, then left-click the elements in the desired tab order, and
click
OK
.
7. Test the display by clicking the Test icon. The Display Editor window will show the display as
currently defined. Use the
Update
or
Auto Scan
button to view current data from the
