Re: tab order

[mla154]

Hello, I have created a dialog using Visual C++ 2005.  On the dialog are 2 group boxes and 2 ActiveX controls.  How do I change the tab ordering of these objects?  I have found the Layout toolbar, which contains the Tab Order button, but I don't know how to enable this button.  Any help is appreciated.

Regards, Mike

If you want to set Tab Order on the dialog forum you must be press Ctrl+D.

you have to be in the "layout editor" to have it enabled

This works in the resource editor.

This was the answer I was looking for, thank you.

but it wasn't full anyway. I maintain that Hamid's solution, such as the menu item you found will only work in the Resource ("Layout") Editor...

I appreciate everyone's responses anyway.  I understand now that the user must have the Resource Editor open and then press Ctrl-D.
