Changing the tabbing order for a group of objects

Instead of moving individual objects to their new location within the tabbing order, you can move a group of objects all at once. This method works only for the objects that are positioned in sequence in the list of objects.

If you have a selection of objects that are scattered throughout the list, you must make them sequential first and then move the group.

After you select a group of sequentially ordered objects, you move the group to a new location in the tabbing order by using the same methods you used for moving a single object.

To select a sequential group of objects using the mouse

1.	In the Tab Order palette list, click the first object in the sequence.

2.	Press Shift and click the last object in the sequence.

To select a sequential group of objects using the keyboard

1.	In the Tab Order palette list, click the first object in the sequence.

2.	Press Shift+Down Arrow or Shift+Up Arrow until all objects in the sequence are selected.

To change a group of individually selected objects to a sequential group

1.	In the Tab Order palette list, click the first object and then press Ctrl and click each object that you want to select.

2.	In the palette menu, select Make Sequential. The selected objects are moved together into a sequentially ordered group.
