    one possibility can be, to use task() method of form, by using taskCode of Enter Key

    no.

    task() will operate across entire form.

    e.g. whenever you will hit enter key, it will go to task() method and there inside task() method it will identify something as bellow

    if(taskNumber = EnterKeyNumber)

    {

     //do something

    }

    there is loss of doing such a customization that every time user will hit enter on keyboard processing inside of task() method will execute.

    On single control we cannot override EnterKey of keyboard. you can see what methods you are allowed to override on a form string control such as StringEdit, by right clicking methods node

    Hi Veera,

    I have altered the heading of you question to remove the capitals. Please don't use only capitals in your question title.
