Hi all:

  is there a way to change the order of controls in a form?
Specifically, I would like to push the group boxes to the start
of the control list. The reason: I inserted a group box "by hand"
using Controls->Insert Group Box. I placed this group box around
some controls that are logically related in order to create
a visual clue for the user. The controls stoped working because
the group box intercepts all mouse clicks.

The solution would be to place the group box "behind" the controls
it is encircling. This can be achieved if the controls could be
placed at known positions in the linked list that the form is maintaining.

Alternatively, one could use a group box that does not capture
the mouse clicks. Is such a modified group box available?

Thank you,
Wojtek
