You should find some good examples if you search the forum for OnCancelClose.

Instead of working with  OnCancelClose you can set Return as TAB propertie to TRUE and each time you press Enter instead of closing it, it will change to next field

I can't believe I missed this for so long - return as tab????
That saves a lot of cancelclose business. good tip.

Hi, yes, it is, of course, as long as you don't need to keep focus in the textbox.
