There is no need to set the KeyPreview Property to True. Just add the following function.

Protected Overrides Function ProcessCmdKey(ByRef msg As System.Windows.Forms.Message, _
                                           ByVal keyData As System.Windows.Forms.Keys) _
                                           As Boolean

    If msg.WParam.ToInt32() = CInt(Keys.Enter) Then
        SendKeys.Send("{Tab}")
        Return True
    End If
    Return MyBase.ProcessCmdKey(msg, keyData)
End Function

Now, when you press Enter on a TextBox, the control moves to the next control.
