Can Any One Tell Me How to use Enter Key Instead of Tab key?

[veeru]

Hello,

I am having number of textfields and mask edit boxes on the form.
Instead of using TAB key to go from one text field to another i wanted to use Enter key.
If any body know how to do this, pl tell me.

If any further clarification is required let me know.

Private Sub Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
If KeyAscii = 13 Then
SendKeys "{tab}"
End If
End Sub

Private Sub Form_Load()
Me.KeyPreview = True
End Sub

Use the KeyDown method of the textbox to detect the Enter key being pressed, then use the SetFocus method on the textbox you want to move to.

This will all be very easy if you've used a control array of text boxes.
