Hi  R,

If you're running on Windows or Motif lookAndFeel,
that should  work ; however, MacOS doesn't support
focusing on a button control.
So  the workaround there is to trap the 'returnKey'
message in your card script  :
--
on returnKey
set the hilite of btn "Foobar" to  true
wait 35 milliseconds
send "mouseUp" to btn  "Foobar"
set the hilite of btn "Foobar" to false
end  returnKey
--

Hope this helped,
Jan  Schenkel.
