Hi fruitbeard,

On comparison with my code I realised that I had not used the tabIndex property. Surprisingly , earlier & elsewhere when I have used textfield, I do not recall using this tabIndex property and yet the tab worked correctly. I think I read somewhere that the 2nd parameter in createTextField function took care of the tabIndexes. So now I wonder what that is for.

But yes using tabIndex property solved the issue perfectly.

So thanks again. Will be back for more.

P.S. I had posted my reply some days ago but for some reason it did not post and was saved in the quick reply box from where I have retrieved it now and re-posting it.
