Changes the tab order to specify the position within the parent that the control will occupy. The control follows the control number you specify in the tab order. This must specify an existing control within the parent (window, option, group, menu, report, detail, etc.). Setting PROP:Follows to a REGION control will be ignored, as REGIONs are not in the Windows tab order. <del>(WRITE-ONLY)</del>

**PROP:Precedes ** added in Clarion 10 is the inverse of **PROP:Follows** . Read-only, runtime only

<code>?A {PROP:Follows} = ?B </code>

is valid only if ?A and ?B have the same parent.

**Example:**

<code>
WinView   WINDOW('View Report'),AT(0,0,320,200),MDI,MAX,HVSCROLL
      BUTTON('View Next Page'),AT(0,180,60,20),USE(?NextPage),DEFAULT
      BUTTON('Print Report'),AT(80,180,60,20),USE(?PrintReport)
      BUTTON('Exit Without Printing'),AT(160,180,60,20),USE(?ExitReport)
     END
  CODE
  OPEN(WinView)
  !Print Report button normally follows View button
  ?PrintReport{PROP:Follows} = ?ExitReport
  !Now Print Report button follows Exit button in the tab order
  ACCEPT
  END
</code>
