Read/Write at run time and design time.
If set to 0 - Control Navigation (the default), the Tab key moves to the next or previous control on the form.
If set to 1 - Column Navigation, the Tab key moves the current cell to the next or previous column. However, if this action would cause the current row to change, then the next or previous control on the form receives focus.
If set to 2 - Grid Navigation, the Tab key moves the current cell to the next or previous column. The behavior of the tab key at row boundaries is determined by the WrapCellPointer property. When this setting is used, the tab key never results in movement to another control.
If set to 3 - Grid Column Navigation, the focus goes to the next control in the tab order when the Tab key is entered on the last column of the last row.
Note
The TabAction property does not determine if the tab key will cross split boundaries. Use the TabAcrossSplits property to control this behavior.
