Changing the Tabbing Order

I have taken a PDF form that I previously created in a graphics program and, via the 'form field recognition' feature in Acrobat Pro 8, have turned it into a form that can be filled out. Although the majority of the fields were recognized, there were a few that I had to add, change or tweak. Now the tabbing order is completely out of whack so I was wondering if there's a way to reset it similar to LiveCycle Designer?

You can do it using Acrobat 8 Pro > Form menu > Edit fields > Set tab order.Notice that you need to select the "Object" tool, or any form field tool, to have this menu item displayed.

I was searching high and low and it was right under my nose. Thanks, Merlin! (Sounds like you're quite the Acrobat magician! ;-)
