Changing Control Order

Summary: View the current order of the controls.

To see the current order of the controls, open the Order/Group dialog box on the Arrange menu. All the controls in your new dialog are listed there in their current order, which is the order in which you created them.

If this dialog were opened in an application, the focus would begin with the first control in the list, the OK button. The user would probably prefer that the focus begin at the list box.

Summary: Reorder the controls.

To change the focus, move the list box to the start of the list by selecting it and then moving the mouse pointer to the start of the list. The mouse pointer changes shape at a valid insertion point. Click to reposition the list box.
