I have an issue with my Infopath Form,
There is a huge text in the begining of the form and a button at the bottom
to start the process. The problem is that whenever the form is opened the
focus of the form goes to this button which is at the bottom. Is there a way
or workaround to get the focus back to the top of the form?

In the "Advance" tab of your button properties, you should be able to choose
the Tab Index.  I believe a higher tab index will move the focus to the
button, so to remove focus from the button, set the tab index to 0.

Hey,
I tried that but it didnt work. I even tried putting the entire text in a
section and changing the tab index for the section & button controls but no
luck :)

Hey I found a solution, thanks to ur direction.
I changed the tab index to -1 and it worked.
