You can subclass TIB_SearchPanel and introduce a method "GridLinkChange". In
this method you can assign GridLinks property and after that it's possible
to scan through wincontrols of SerachPanel and assign new TabOrder value.

BTW, I use this approach to "synch" EditButton property of IB_Grid, which is
not available in IB_SearchPanel. So defined Lookups are working not only
within both controls but also in SearchMode of underlying dataset.
