Jerry,

I just have both message handlers (enterInField and returnInField) in  
my fields and they both call the same command if they both have the  
same functionality.

There are good reasons to have them separate, I believe. Some fields  
take carriage returns in their text, but the enter key should still  
make the default button activate.

My 2 cents.

Best,

Jerry Daniels
