Tab Order Displays When Opening Interactive Form

When I open an form with editable form fields a small box with a number in it displays next to each field. I think these may be the tab order. Others can open the same form without the boxes. All forms I open have the boxes. I need to turn off the display and printing of these boxes and still be able to fill in the form fields.

Please advise how to fix.

James Chambless

p.s. I have a print screen, but I do not see how to attach it to this post.

Are you sure you're looking at the tab order? Perhaps you might be seeing the tag or structure order? Do you have the Order Navigation panel open?

It is possible I am looking at the tag or structure order. I do not have the Order Navigation panel open. I did not see how to upload a print screen, so I added a snipit of what I see to my profile as my photo. Hope this helps.
