How can I remove fields from the tab order? For example I have many fields on the first page of a form that are read-only and calculated from elsewhere in the form. When I tap the tab key, I'd like to move past those fields to the next page.

If a field is set as read-only it will not be included in the tab order.

I do not believe this to be accurate. I have to fields mark as read only. Users cannot edit the fields but they are still able to click on them and tab through them. Do I need to set some other security setting so that the read-only fields are not "tabable" Thanks if advance.

You might not believe it, but it is. I just tested it just to make sure (although I knew that it was), and indeed, a read-only field is not included in the tab-order. If that's not the case for you please provide a sample file as well as a video demonstrating this behavior, and the exact name and version number of the application you're using.

I figured it out. In the preview mode of preparing the form, it still tabs through all of the fields but once you close the editing, the tabs disappear. Thank you!
