When I hit return in a multiline text box, focus goes to next text

Is there a way to defeat and chastise this behavior? I am from the old
school where when you were done with a line you hit return. However this
makes the focus jump to the next text box below the multiline text box.

Must I change my ways?

While we are are on this return / enter subject ... is there a way to key in
alt or cntrl something something to create a return character into the text
at the location where you key it in?

Look at the .EnterKeyBehavior property of the Textbox
Or use CTRL+ENTER.

But be consistent on the behaviour of all text boxes, otherwise users will
become confused.
