Hi Pete,

Yep, guess I didn't read this closely enough. As I recall the way you have to do this (provided the Reorder Fields option doesn't, is to systematically step through Send to back or Bring to front. What you do is select the objects in the order you want them (first to last) then Send to Back. Or, last to first, Bring to Front.

Another idea would be to create your own dialog to allow you to re-write the order of the table. This would be like the Object Order dialog in FPW.
