I have a repeating table that has 2 rows for each record.  I set the tab
order to the following:  row1/cell1,row1/cell2,row2/cell1,row2/cell2

This works fine for the 1st row but when I add a row, the tab starts in
row1/cell1 but then goes to row1/cell2 of the previous line...

What's up with that!!!

Arrgggghhh....

Your tab order only applies to the first row in the repeating table unless
you use code and the current() function to enable it.  Do a search on this
discussion board for current() and look at the examples.

In general setting the tab order manually is a bad idea in InfoPath -- especially in repeating controls.

The better thing to do is to use layout tables to get your tab order.
