OK, I must admit you are right. My users here had the same argument.

How about globally intercepting ENTER in your forms (method Form.KeyPress; you will also need to set Form.KeyPreview = .T.), and change all ENTERs to TABs?

I think I will try this myself, one of these days.

I am not sure whether this is a good idea; ENTER might be needed for other things. Of course, users can still activate a button with Spacebar.

Hilmar.
