Default Filling In Forms

When filling in a protected form, I want the return key to tab to the next
field as opposed to creating another line when depressed. Can Anyone help?

Not simple or even very practical, but doable. See "WD: How to Code ENTER

Some people are more comfortable with macros than others, but the big
drawback I always see to this is that you not only have to include the macro
but also somehow persuade users to enable it.
