    Use this code as the custom Keystroke script for your fields:

     

    if (event.fieldFull) this.getField("NextField").setFocus();

     

    Note that you have to fill in the name of the next field in the tab order manually. The script can't know which one it is by itself.

    in the future, to find the best place to post your message, use the list here, https://community.adobe.com/

    p.s. i don't think the adobe website, and forums in particular, are easy to navigate, so don't spend a lot of time searching that forum list. do your best and we'll move the post (like this one has already been moved) if it helps you get responses.
