Winform - Button - Prevent button pass Enter key to other control.

Question

I have a textbox1 and some more textbox with keypress event that change Enter key to Tab.
I have a button with click event: {textbox1.Focus();}.
The problem is that, when I press Enter key to fire button's Click event, the textbox1 gets focusing and cursor moves to next control (because textbox keypress event). It work well if I click on button by mouse.
Now I want pressing enter key on button without passing Enter key value to other controls.
Please help

Instead of using Keypress events, you can use ProcessCmdKey to handle keys globally

For example, to go to the next control on Enter, but only when the focus is not on the button (button1 in my test),
you can do something like

    protected override bool ProcessCmdKey(ref Message msg, Keys keyData)
    {
        if (keyData == Keys.Enter)
        {  
            if (this.ActiveControl.Handle != button1.Handle)
                this.SelectNextControl(this.ActiveControl, true, true, true, true);             
        }
        return base.ProcessCmdKey(ref msg, keyData);
    }
