Sure. Put some behavior like this on the text field sprite:
----
on keyDown me
end
----
This will trap keydowns, preventing them from reaching the field. If
you want keyDowns to slip through the behavior to the field you do a
'pass'. Thus, this bhv will do what you want:
----
on keyDown me
if the key <> RETURN then pass
end
----
Good luck -A.
