How to insert a letter in a field and automatically switch to the next field without using tab?

Hi to all,

 

In a PDF form I'm creating I need to enter a single letter in a field and automatically switch to the next one without using the tabulator. It's possible?
The fields are separated for layout reasons so I would like to avoid clicking the tabulator about 60 times to move from one field to another.

 

Thank you, have a nice day and happy New Year!

It's possible, but the script can't know what's the next field in the tab order, so you'll have to hard-code that name into the script of each one of those fields. Search the forum for "auto tabbing" or "autoTab" for examples of this code.
