I would like that when the user press the Enter key if will simply go to the next control like the Tab key does. I found the following code in the Internet: Private Sub CurrencyTextbox_KeyDown(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Windows.Forms.KeyEventArgs) Handles Me.KeyDown 'Tab to the Next Control when presing Enter If e.KeyCode = Keys.Return Then SendKeys.Send("{TAB}") End If End Sub It is working fine, but obviously this will fire for every key pressed in the control, is this the correct event to handle that feature, or is there another way to get this done? P.S. I will post the final version of this class when done. Edhy Rijo
