I have used Access and other languages that have the component variable called tab order in which you can tell which field you want it to go to after you finish with the current field. Is there something like this in Java? What I am trying to accomplish is once I type in the information in a field and press ENTER I want it to automatically go to the next field. I know I can do this by setting up a KEY_EVENT test to see if the ENTER key was pressed and then using the requestFocus() on every field, but this seems like an unnecessary large amount of code for the amount of fields I am going to have. Is there a better way? Thanks in Advance, Walter Draffin Telegraph New Technologies
