["Wright, Lynne" <Lynne -dot- Wright -at- Kronos -dot- com>]

But the way you've written it, the sentence seems to be saying that the information is displayed from left to right; not the tabs.

At one place I worked, our editor did not let us use âthe followingâ as a none, only as an adjectival preposition:

The information is displayed from left to right in the following five tabs: Overview, Category, Locus, Sequence, and Details.
