Why not just set tab order and use the default TAB key for moving between controls?

Don't do that. As Richard suggests, the TAB key is the normal "movement-between-inputs" key, ENTER is "I've filled it in, now process it" key.

And while it is possible to do what you want, it's a bad idea as it makes your app incompatible with nearly all other apps in Windows - which means your method will either be forgotten, or will actively annoy users.
Always stick to standards - they are there for a reason!

Setting the tab order is easy: in the designer you just click the Tab Order button or select it from the View menu. You then click on the controls in the order they should be entered (remembering to click the relevant label before the control it refers to). When you are done, just click the button again.
