First, make sure you don't have any buttons on the form where the Cancel property is .T., or Enter will fire the click of that button.

In the LostFocus of the textbox put this code:

IF LASTKEY() = CHR(9)    && Tab
   DODEFAULT()
ELSE
   NODEFAULT
ENDIF

It sounds like it would be a good idea for you to make a specialized sub-class with this behavior, and to use that sub-class.
