"then he wants to skip the second groupbox" The question here is: what do you mean by "skip;" what action will the user take that your Application will interpret as a command to move the focus to a Control in the third GroupBox ? Using the Tab Key ? Pressing a Button ? ... what ?

Well, here you need to maintain the Tab Order according your requirement.

Control.TabIndex property gets or sets the tab order of the control within its container.
See the MSDN[^].

Give tab order to the first groupbox as 1, and 2 to the third groupbox. Problem Solved :)
