That's the way it works(tm). Enter will trigger the Default button (the Ok 
button usually). Ctrl-Enter will give you the newline.

But, you can create the control with the -addstyle => ES_WANTRETURN option, 
and that will make the _control_ capture the Enter keypress and make a new 
line for you. This only works for multiline controls.

Now, I know you use The GUI Loft, so I added a WantReturn property to the 
Textfield and RichEdit controls. Download the new release here:
