"Tab order" in Dialog Designer, what does it do?

Will it allow me to make dialogs containing multiple "pages"?
I am thinking like when I right click on a file and select Properties, there are several "pages" of information.

Tab order relates to the tab key and sets the order with which the tab key focuses each object. In Windows the tab key moves focus from one object to the next on a form.

When you click the tab order button you will see a list of the objects. Order them appropriately so that the tab key will cycle through the objects in the prescribed order.
