Default Problem managing Enter Key behavior in a userform

One possibility owul be to have the SAVE Button set to:
CommandButton1.enabled = false
UNTIL ALL Comboboxes and Textboxes contain values.
You could use the :
CommandButton1.enabled=True on the last Textbox to enable it again.

I have a userfrom that contains three combo box lists and 8 text boxes.

My user uses the comboboxes to select from lists of values. They then
enter data in to the text boxes.

Finally they select a save command button to save all the data to a row in
a worksheet.

I have set the tab order to go through the three combo boxes first then
the text boxes. I have set the Text box EnterKeyBehavior proprty to False.
Everything is fine if the user uses a mouse or the Tab Key.

My problem is that if the user presses the Enter Key at any time the
comboboxes are live the form immediately trys to Save. I want the Enter
key behavior for the combo boxes to set focus to the next combobox or Text
box but when I use the following code all that happens is I cannot edit
the initial combobox, focus immediately goes to the one referenced in the
code

Private Sub cbbLocation_Enter()
cbbFYear.SetFocus
End Sub

Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
