The only thing you did wrong was not reading the [bind] man page. :-)
Check the section on "Multiple Matches", and you'll see how to handle this.
Basically, you want to put a [break] into your widget binding to prevent the
class binding (applied to all Entries) and the "all" binding (applied to all
widgets).
Or, if you really just want to control the tab-order (and not do other
processing), you should be looking at tk_focusNext man page, which explains
that you can control tab order by controlling the stacking order, and
individual widgets can be controlled with the -takefocus option.
Good luck,
Bob
