Jennifer, Could you elaborate more on this? I can't find classes or anything in the on-line help that discusses compareTabOrder and DefaultFocusManager. I'm actually using Oracle's Appbuilder 1.0 (Oracle's inherited adaptation of JBuilder, even though I'd like to be on JBuilder 2.0 by now!) Chances are this may be in a higher version than JBuilder 1.0, or the 1.1 upgrade? Just out of testing, I did try to change the statement order indicated by Paul Furbacher, but it didn't work for me either. Thanks again! -Scott.
