Automatically moving to the next field

My users are picky! They don't like pressing the tab key to move to the next field during Data Review.
So on fields that have a fixed number of digits they want the the cursor to move to the next field after the last digit has been typed. For example, a social security number has a fixed length of 9 digits. They want the next field after the SSAN to get focus after they have entered the full 9 digits without having to press the Tab key. This is also true for phone numbers and other specialized codes that we use. They say that it will help during the data-entry for the many had-written documents that don't OCR.
Is this possible?
Thanks in advance.

Much as you did with the issue in:
https://xchange.grooper.com/discussion/1088/moving-to-the-next-form-field-after-single-key-press
You need to cast it to TextBox (instead of ComboBox)
From your previous posting listed above.
Let us know if this helps, or if you need more detailed help with the script.
I truly appreciate the assistance.
