What kind of application are you in? Winforms? Webforms?

You should be able to handle a keypress event for the form or whatever control is on the form and catch the enter key code, then you can just call the button click() handler method.

Alternatively can you just not set the DialogResult property of the button to "OK". If I understand correctly, setting this property will make that button the default "ACCEPT" button for the form and pressing ENTER will be equivalent to clicking on it.

i tried the thing about "dialogresult", but i think it is for something different to what i want to do, because nothing happens 
now i have to investigate about keypress, because i've never use it.
thank you for the advices

If you are looking at trapping keyboard events, look at key-down and key-up instead of keypress event as keypress event does not trap all key presses.

The NotifyDefault method of a button takes a boolean value to draw itself as the default button and you can also use the AcceptButton property of the form to the default button.

How about set the AcceptButton property of the form to the button Aceptr? Is that what you want?
