Well, I have chosen a third way. I manualy created a .cdxml-File

(without the class designer, since my Form is huge and I don't like what

it does to my .cdxml) that looks like this: (I stripped it down to the

essentials for readability)

...

<dGridSizer>

<dTextBox rowColPos="(1, 1)" DataField="sph_r"></dTextBox>

<dTextBox rowColPos="(2, 1)" DataField="sph_l"></dTextBox>

<dTextBox rowColPos="(1, 2)" DataField="cyl_r"></dTextBox>

<dTextBox rowColPos="(2, 2)" DataField="cyl_l"></dTextBox>

<dTextBox rowColPos="(1, 3)" DataField="ach_r"></dTextBox>

<dTextBox rowColPos="(2, 3)" DataField="ach_l"></dTextBox>

<dTextBox rowColPos="(1, 4)" DataField="add_r"></dTextBox>

<dTextBox rowColPos="(2, 4)" DataField="add_l"></dTextBox>

...

</dGridSizer>

...

This results in the TabOrder sph_r,sph_l,cyl_r,cyl_l,...

But I want sph_r,cyl_r,ach_r,...,sph_l,cyl_l,...

Ok, maybe I can rearange my textfields and put all *_r fields in one

dSizer and *_l fields in a second one. - To bad I really liked the

dGridSizer.

That I have found, but it is no use to me in my situation, since I want

TabStop but just a different order.
