In your exact situation, you may dynamically disable the "Allow Return"
option of Variable Memo control, using the following PROPERTY command.

PROPERTY <VarMemoComponentID> WANTRETURNS 'FALSE'
RETURN

The [Enter] key will be treated as the [Tab] key when "Allow Return"
option is disabled (Manually and/or Dynamically).

I have an external form file (RFF) with a Variable Memo control with component 
ID 'edtInput'.

When I put

PROPERTY edtInput WANTRETURNS 'FALSE'
RETURN

into my ON AFTER START EEP and type MY NAME IS FRED <<ENTER>> or anything else 
into my Variable Memo control, the cursor stubbornly stays at the end of the 
field.  The <<ENTER>> key is ignored.  If I hit <<TAB>> I continue to the next 
control (a Push Button).

Interestingly, when I set this up on a normal form (database form), it seems to 
work OK.
