Why does the tab order go from "Find what" field to "Find Next" button for the "Find and Replace" dialog in the MATLAB Editor for MATLAB 7.0.4 (R14SP2)?

The tab order for "Edit -> Find and Replace" dialog should have the “Replace with” field after the “Find what” field. Currently, if you write a word in the "Find what" field and hit tab, it goes to the “Find Next” button from the "Find what" field, which is redundant since one can press the enter key on the keyboard to find the next occurance of the word.

This bug has been fixed in Release 14 Service Pack 3 (R14SP3). For previous product releases, read below for any possible workarounds:

The ability to select the "Replace with" field using the tab key, after entering a word in the "Find what" field of the "Find and Replace" dialog, is not available in MATLAB 7.0.4 (R14SP2).

There are no workarounds.
