tab box control properties

First off, I'd like to thank the person who replied to my last question.
Your response was very helpful.

I have a new problem. I am using a property node to access the pages of
a tab box. From each page I am using another property node to access the
controls on the page. My question is: How is the array of control references
ordered when it is retrieved from a singular page property node? In some
cases the order by which the page is setup and that of the CtlsOnPage array
differ...I cannot have that.

Thanks for any and all help!

I'm not able to give an answer but I have the exact same problem.
I depend on the order of the controls to be the same but on my last tab page this isn't the case and I wonder how to order the controls.
I already tried removing the controls from the page and putting them back in the order I'd like them to be but to no avail. Also 'move to front' and such is not having an effect.

Thanks a lot

Try this with the VI not running:
1. Left-click on the tab you want to change.
2. Right-click on the tab and select Reorder Controls in Page.
3. Click on the controls in the order you want them to have.
4. Click OK.

The Left-click in step 1 of my answer is with the operate tool so the tab page you want to change is displayed.
