So here i post it again. I have a Component with several other components in it: class PACKAGE TMyComponent : public TWinControl { private: TComboBox *FComboBox; TStringGrid *FStringGrid; TBitBtn *FBitBtn; TImage *FImage; ................ I Only Want TabStop and TabOrder on the combobox. I have tried using : int FTabOrder; bool FTabStop; bool __fastcall GetTabStop(){return FTabStop;} void __fastcall SetTabStop(bool TabStop){FTabStop = TabStop;} __property int TabOrder = {read = GetTabOrder, write = SetTabOrder}; __property bool TabStop = {read = GetTabStop, write = SetTabStop}; But that does not have the real TabOrder/TabStop Effect. If i do not have a TabOrder/TabStop property i get an error. Any help would be great.

Here is what I responded with on July 30, 2004: Try something like this: class PACKAGE TWinControlX : public TWinControl { private: TButton* Button; TComboBox* Combo; TEdit* Edit; bool __fastcall GetTabStop(); void __fastcall SetTabStop( bool Value ); protected: public: __fastcall TWinControlX(TComponent* Owner); __published: __property TabOrder ; __property TabStop = { read=GetTabStop, write=SetTabStop } ; }; __fastcall TWinControlX::TWinControlX(TComponent* Owner) : TWinControl(Owner) { Width = 200; Height = 150; Button = new TButton(this); Button->Parent = this; Button->SetBounds( 16, 16, Button->Width, Button->Height ); Button->TabStop = false; Combo = new TComboBox(this); Combo->Parent = this; Combo->SetBounds( 16, 48, Combo->Width, Combo->Height ); Combo->TabStop = false; Edit = new TEdit(this); Edit->Parent = this; Edit->SetBounds( 16, 80, Edit->Width, Edit->Height ); Edit->TabStop = true; // <--- } //--------------------------------------------------------------------------- bool __fastcall TWinControlX::GetTabStop() { return Edit->TabStop; } void __fastcall TWinControlX::SetTabStop( bool Value ) { Edit->TabStop = Value; } Todd Back to top Paw Suddergaard Guest Posted: Wed Sep 01, 2004 8:09 am    Post subject: Re: TabOrder and TabStop in a component derrived from TWinCo Hi, thanks for you quick reply. I have tried your aproach, but it still is not the real tabstop and taborder. I can still set taborder to the same value of alle my components. If i use tab key when running the a program with my component, the cursor disappears somtimes. Maby thats because i tab to something "in" my component??? But i cannot think of what it could be, because i have set tabstop = false to everything. Any ideas? Thanks again.

It Works now!!! I had set TabStop to a new Property, instead of republishing... Thanks, ALOT!
