How to jump to the next control by using the ENTER key
Let's have a form with several text boxes. The tab order has been set as needed and is working as expected. After the user fills each text box, the tab key moves the focus to the next text box and so on. I need suggestions on what would be the most convenient method to allow the user to go to the next text box by using the ENTER key as an alternate key?

I like the SendKeys.SendWait with the {Tab} key the best, then you don't need to specify a control to focus to.

This is what I use:
private void textBox1_KeyDown(object sender, System.Windows.Forms.KeyEv
{
if (e.KeyCode == Keys.Enter)
{
SendKeys.SendWait("{Tab}")
e.Handled = true;
}
}
