I have moved my controls around. Can I set a tab order? I don’t do
programming unfortunately but am a competent user. Many thanks.

It is an option on the Advanced Properties of the Control called - tabindex.
Each frame appears to have it's own tab index along with each Frame also
having their own tab index

frame1 - tabindex 1
frame2 - tabindex2
etc.

control1 - tabindex1
control2 - tabindex2
etc.

If you set the tabindex to 0 it will not be included in the tab order
sequence

In addition, if you click "Layout" on the top menu bar, then Tab order, you
can easily configure the tab order of all the controls.....
