I tried trapping on the Enter event within a form, but it doesn't seem to
fire. Is there some way to do this? (I want to default to "Logon" when Enter
is pressed within a form without actually having to mouse to the button.
 
Set the Form.AcceptButton to the button you require.. in your case the logon
button

Please don't multipost. I gave you a reply in the other group.
 
The other post was a mistake. I didn't realize I was in the controls group
and this was a forms related question.
 
Thanks... Excellent response. This was perfect and turned out to be much
simpler than I expected.

Works like a champ now.
