Right now I have hard coded in LostFocus event a test and a xxx.SetFocus method when I need to go to a different field. To make things more complex I am also detecting the ENTER key in the KeyPressed event and doing a xxx.SetFocus on EVERY field to simply go to the next field so ENTER works like TAB. This all works but it seems cumbersome to have to "hard code" the next field. In another language (on Windows only) to handle special keys (like ENTER) to go to the next tab stop you can call a method on any field that simply goes to the next field without having to hard code each one. Any best practice insights would be appreciated.
