GetTabOrderModeA

Form fields, Annotations and hotspot links

Description

The trailing A denotes the ANSI (char) DLL entry point; the ActiveX/COM surface exposes only the Unicode form. Behaviour is identical to GetTabOrderMode and string arguments are interpreted using the current SetAnsiMode code page

This function returns the current tabbing order for all the annotations and formfields on the currently selected page.

If you use SetFormFieldTabOrder then you should set the tabbing order to 'S'tructure mode for the required pages.
