There is a built in property for this matter :)

Form b = newForm();
b.AcceptButton = btnLogin;//btnLogin represents the button you ahve to press to go forward.

In your case, it's probably :

this.AcceptButton = btnLogin;

Note that you can also set the AcceptButton of your form in the Designer View. Simply click your form and look at the propertie windows, its somewhere in there :)

Hope this helps

or on the end of some code do:

this.btnLogin.Focus();

this should put the focus on login button. So after checking the user`s name and password, user can press the button with pressing Enter key.

Hope it helps,
Mitja
