I would check “Shortcuts” in Database Settings -> Structure Settings -> Interface -> Shortcuts area. What shortcut does “Accept input form:” have? I’ll bet it is “Enter”. Remove that shortcut and that should solve your issue. I remove all 3 of these shortcuts for all my 4D applications. This is really a very, very old legacy feature that 4D had. I prefer to control how the Enter and Esc keys do when a form is displayed.
