TAB order

[InterestedNewbie]

How do I change the TAB order of the buttons in a dialog? I don't see this option in the dialog editor.

Thanks.

05:57 - 6. Tabstops and order and adding tooltips (basic, adding only).

zorder of the controls (the order in which they appear in the dialog definitions.Code between BEGIN DIALOG and END DIALOG) mainly determines the tab order.
You can of course also change that by removing WS_TABSTOP  style on certain controls in the dialog styles editor.
But in doing so ,it makes it so that control is no longer able to be move to by pressing the tab button
the other way to effect tab order is by adjusting the zorder of the controls.

Thanks both! Very useful. In this case the quickest way was to remove Tab Stop from one of the buttons.
