Description

Handle the enterKey message when you want to perform an action (such as going to the next card) when the user presses Enter .

The Enter key is usually located on the numeric keypad. It is a different key from the Return key (confusingly labeled "Enter" on some keyboards), which is usually located above the right-hand Shift key.

The message is sent to the active (focused) control, or to the current card if no control is focused. If there is a text selection or insertion point in a field and the user presses Enter, the enterInField message is sent to that field, and the enterKey message is not sent.
