Philip,

Did you try it in the Form_KeyPress event?  Don't forget to set the
KeyPreview to True.  By the way, I believe this will only work non-button
type controls.

Private Sub Form_KeyPress(KeyAscii As Integer)
   If KeyAscii = vbKeyReturn Then
      SendKeys "{TAB}"
      KeyAscii = 0
   End If
End Sub
