Tab key skips a field

I have 7 note fields in a display file.
On the 5250 screen, when you tab through the fields while entering data, it goes through note 1, note 2, note 3, note 4, note 5, note 6, note 7.

I used Genie to create a better looking screen.
When you are entering data, the tab key goes through note 1, note 2, note 3, note 4 then it skips note 5 and goes not note 6 and then note 7. The only way to get to note 5 is to click into note 5.

Have any of you see an issue where the tab key skips a field?

Hello,
maybe the field properties are wrong look to the proberty "tab Index" that defined the "way" the tab-key goes from 1 to 99999. So your note 1 should have tab index 1, note2 should have tab index 2 .....
