Cursor progression assignments give you the ability to assign a tabbing sequence between fields that are logically grouped together within generated functions. For each field within a record format, you can assign its position within the tabbing sequence. For back tabbing, cursor progression assignments are reversed.
Note: The last field displayed within a format should be the highest field in the tab sequence order. This is a design suggestion, because if not designed in this way, tabbing within the generated function loops within a single format.
To edit the cursor progression assignments, press F10 from Edit Screen Format Details panel. This panel is shown earlier in this chapter in the Editing Device Designs section.
You can assign tabbing sequence and change the order in which fields display from the Edit Screen Format Details panel. "F8 = move", from the device design editor, was the only way to change the order in which fields displayed. When you use F8 to move a field, that field is assigned a new display sequence number equal to that of the target field plus 0.01. Therefore, if you key in new display sequence numbers, you should key in only integer values.
