TabStop Property
See Also Example Applies To
Returns or sets a value indicating whether a user can use the TAB key to give the focus to an object.
Syntax
object**.TabStop** [**=**boolean]
The TabStop property syntax has these parts:
| Part | Description |
| Object | An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list. |
| Boolean | A Boolean expression specifying whether the object is a tab stop, as described in Settings. |
Settings
The settings for boolean are:
| Setting | Description |
| True | (Default) Designates the object as a tab stop. |
| False | Bypasses the object when the user is tabbing, although the object still holds its place in the actual tab order, as determined by the TabIndex property. |
Remarks
This property enables you to add or remove a control from the tab order on a form. For example, if you're using a PictureBox control to draw a graphic, set its TabStop property to False, so the user can't tab to the PictureBox.
