TabAcrossSplits Property
See Also Example Applies To
Sets or returns the behavior of the tab and arrow keys at split borders.
Syntax
object**.TabAcrossSplits** [**=**value]
The TabAcrossSplits property syntax has these parts:
| Part | Description |
| object | An object expression that evaluates to an object in the Applies To list. |
| value | A Boolean expression that determines the behavior of the tab and arrow keys at split borders, as described in Settings. |
Settings
The settings for value are:
| Setting | Description |
| True | Tab and arrow keys will move the current cell across split boundaries. When at the last column of the rightmost split (or the first column of the leftmost split), they will either wrap to the next row, stop, or move to other controls depending on the values of the WrapCellPointer and TabAction properties. |
| False | (Default) The tab and arrow keys will not move the current cell across split boundaries. They will either wrap to the next row, stop, or move to other controls depending on the values of the WrapCellPointer and TabAction properties. |
Remarks
The TabAcrossSplits property does not determine if the tab and arrow keys will move from cell to cell, or from control to control, or wrap to the next row. Use the AllowArrows, WrapCellPointer, and TabAction properties to control this behavior. If the tab and arrow keys are able to move from cell to cell, this property determines whether they will move across split boundaries to adjacent splits.
