- The tab order of the controls in a window or dialog box determines the sequence in which the focus changes when the user strikes the Tab key. It only applies to controls that are capable of receiving focus.
- For a Passed result, the contents of the controls argument need not be inclusive of every control in the window. However, the listed controls must be consecutive in the tab order (that is, no gaps).
- This action supports the <ignore> modifier. If the string
<ignore>is present as the value of any of the arguments, or any argument contains an expression that evaluates to<ignore>, the action is skipped during execution.
