I just finished alot of editing work in Acrobat. When I tested to tabbing, hitting Tab once sent me to the 2nd page!

 

How can I change the tabbing order? I certainly hope there's a faster way then opening each object properties and changing the number!

Run this script, it will change tab order by rows:

for (var i = 0; i < this.numPages; i++)
this.setPageTabOrder(i, "rows");

I'm not a very good programmer right now.

You don't know how to run a script from console? You can also place it in a button field as 'Mouse UP' action.
