Any success so far?

If you'd like you can contact me offline to discuss it in more detail. I
have struggled with this issue for a while.

Some good ideas...I left TabIndexes as is, set those not needed to
false...First group box works, then goes directly to OK button (not in a
group box) - not sure what tabindex to make the OK button...Then tabs
back to Mtl and then will tab to second group box as we need...
So, I think the OK button is the main issue...I may try to play with the
on leave option.

Don't know if this would work or not but make sure the group box is the
Tab Index in between the fields.... (and tab stop is false)

field TabIndex = 10
groupbox TabIndex = 11
field TabIndex = 12

Otherwise maybe get references to the 2 entry boxes and use the OnLeave
event of the first box to do .Focus() on the next....

I am trying to change the tab order of a form and there are two group boxes on the form...The tab goes through the correct order in the first group box, but then goes to the OK button instead of cycling through the second group box. I tried this by setting to Tab false for all buttons and text boxes that I do not want to tab to. What is the key to get to the second group box before the OK button?
TIA

I don't think you can control the tab order when moving from one group
box to another. I spent more than a week trying to get it right for
"Issue Material" screen. I wanted to implement a barcode system for
issuing material using barcoded Job Pick Lists. Tech support told me it
was not possible to control it, unless I created a new form.

Thanks Mike, yes that is the form we are working with too. We were able to get close so far...We scan job (+tab), moves to Mtl, scan Mtl(+tab), then user will have to click in qty to continue with the other scans.

I don't think you can control the tab order when moving from one group
box to another. I spent more than a week trying to get it right for
"Issue Material" screen. I wanted to implement a barcode system for
issuing material using barcoded Job Pick Lists. Tech support told me it
was not possible to control it, unless I created a new form.
