Tabbing sequence incorrect after emailing

After I emailed my forms to my boss she told me the tabbing sequence is out of order.  I checked back over my forms and it looked fine.  Do I need to lock all fields before emailing to prevent this problem?

Are you using different versions of Acrobat/Reader?

I using Acrobat 8 to edit my forms. I opened one of my forms and looked at the  "Form Properties" it says...

Form Type: Acrobat 6 (Static) PDF Form

Text Formatting: Version 7

Event Model: Version 7

I also use Adobe Reader 9.

I emailed one of my own forms to myself and opened it with Adobe Reader 9 and saw the same problem.

If I open the form back up in Adobe 8 then my tabbing order looks just fine.

There were issues with the tabbing order between all of those versions. You may wantt o try changing the target version to 8.1 and see if that makes a difference.

Thank you so much for all your input. You were absolutely correct about

there possibly being a conflict with the Adobe versions. For the most part

I've cleared up the problem. Now I'm told the tabbing order gets out of

sequence if there is a "check box".
