Gerard,
assuming that we talk about MS Windows, ENTER is not the key to leave a field. (At least not to go to the next field) The key to move trough the fields is
Tab (backwards Shift - Tab)
Enter is the key asigned to the DEFAULT command button. IOW enter will fire the click event of the default button.
See also SET CONFIRM (This is the command for the button Terry mentioned) and SET KEYCOMP
