Any way to stop the tabbing from including all the stuff in the Master Page header and footer?

It makes the form look shabby and unprofessional and it takes time that the user won't have... Plus it is very confusing to the user who might not see where the tab is as he is pressing the tab key.

need some help in stopping this behavior.

thanks!

Hi,


You can try to make all those objects as PROTECTED, which you do not want to be included in the tabbing order.

It should be as simple as

xfa.form.form1.subform1.textfield.access = "protected"

at initialize event.

Hi SID,
thanks - I will try that. Here's a new question, a new task I've been given. Hopefully you might be able to help me.

I have a table with one row, several columns. The user will click the Add button to add row(s). The Remove button currently removes the last row of the table. I am tasked with putting check boxes in a column of each row so that the user can "check" which rows he wants to remove when the Remove button is pressed.

I do not know javascript or any code (except some HTML) and am learning LiveCycle Designer ES 8.2 as I build this form. So nothing is obvious to me.

Anyone, Help?
Thank you!

Marla
