I have couple of group boxes on my windows form. How can I tab on controls
only inside a group which I have focus on. Somehow it tabs across all the
group boxes on all the controls.

I did use the visual studio tab order property to set tabindex for each
control and group.
 
Hi,

Try setting your Tab order by using the View -> Tab Order option, which
will give you a visual indication of the exact Tab order of all
controls and their containers.

If this is not what you needed, or have tried this, please elaborate on
your question...

Regards,

Cerebrus.

Did you set the tab index sequentially, so that group A would have tab
indexes 1-10, group B 11-20, etc? I believe if you overlap the tab
indexes they will jump off to the other groups.
 
Hi John,

I don't think that is entirely correct...

Tab indexes within a group are numbered as :
1.1, 1.2, 1.3...
So, you can't overlap indexes outside a group.

Cerebrus.
