and then
determine the control that caused it, would this work?

just something like this would work.....no?

        private void comboBox1_KeyPress(object sender,
KeyPressEventArgs
e)
        {
            MessageBox.Show(
((short)System.Windows.Forms.Keys.Enter ==
(short)e.KeyChar).ToString());

        }
