By default, tabs on a form are displayed in the order in
which you create them. You can change the order by assigning an index
number to a tab. The index number identifies the order of the tab
on the form; the first tab has index number 0, the second tab has
index number 1, and so on.
Procedure
To change the order of tabs:
- Start the Designer.
-
In the Schema Repository Explorer view, expand the Record Types folder
in your schema and then double-click on a record type.
The record type editor opens.
- Click the Forms tab to open the form.
- Click a tab on the form to open up it's properties page.
- On the properties page for the tab, set the Tab
Index number.
Select 0 for the tab you want
to display first on the form; select 1 for the second tab, and so
on.
- Close the form and reopen it to see the change.
