win32 win_nt 4.0 (1999-12-15-09 M12)
Steps:
1. Launch Messenger
2. Select Task|Address Book from Messenger
3. Click on the New Card button to display New Card dialog
4. Type name in the First name field, press Enter
5. Set focus in the Last name field, type last name
Actual result: The New Card dialog closes automatically
Expected result: It should not be closed automatically. It should only close
when I press the OK button.
This does not happen on Linux.
Will check Mac later.
I do not think this is a bug. Pressing enter should activate the default button
in a dialog, in this case "OK". I think this bug should be removed. If you
agree please do so.
Mac (1999-12-15-08 M12)
This problem also occurs on the Mac.
Paul, I disagree. In Nova, when I press Enter, it does nothing in the dialog. I
have to click on OK to close the dialog. The same happens on Linux.
What do you think? Lisa.

This is working as designed. All dialogs with an OK button that is designated to
be the default button should activate the OK button when return or enter are
pressed. Currently this is just barely working but as you have seen Enter now
activates the OK button on some dialogs, soon it will work this way on all
dialogs and all platforms.
Paul, thanks for explaining this to me in person. This means, Mac and Win_nt is
working as it is supposed to. Dialog should automatically close when pressing
Enter.
However, since Linux does not close the New card dialog when pressing Enter, I
am going to comment it in bug 21868, As for this bug, I am going to close it.
