The way I've done this in both Gambas and web apps (for normal tabs, 
not shift tabs) is to set the lost focus event on the last control of 
the desired tab sequence to set the focus to the first control in 
that sequence.  Then you can even have multiple sets of controls, 
each with their own tab order (as perceived by the user.)

I have also had an enabled but hidden (through being 1x1 pixels or 
whatever) control at the end of the desired tab order whose GotFocus 
event was to set the focus back to the beginning of the tab order.  
You should be able to adapt that to work with shift-tab as well.
