While making a Custom Form in Outlook, I tried to change the tabindex so,
that the cursor would appear in the Message part of my Custom Form.

Even though Tabindex is set to 0, no cursor appears in my Message. What am I
doing wrong? Is it even possible?

I think that's normal behavior. The tab index doesn't seem to affect the message body control.
