Object methods are executed in a specific order when loaded. When a form is loaded, the object methods are executed in the same order as the entry order. If there are multiple pages on a form, all object methods on the first page are executed first. So all object methods on page 0 are first executed before any object methods on page 1, and all object methods on page 1 are execute before any object methods on page 2, etc. Another thing to note is that all object methods are executed before the form method. The form method is last to be executed.
