Don't do it.
The reason it's not simple to do is that it breaks all the rules for UI design in Windows: ENTER is a "special key" which means "I'm finished", not "I want to enter data".
Normally, ENTER will terminate an entry, or close a form, or end a paragraph - none of those are consistent with what you are trying to do - and that means that your app has markedly different behaviour to all other Windows apps. Which means that it will confuse users, and will be disliked, even uninstalled.

I'd strongly suggest you rethink your UI design: this would not be simple to implement, and would not produce a good user experience.
