Text box - key pressed at the end

Can I remove the "enter" at the end of text box entry? So that valid input is for example: "new;"

(and I don't need to press enter key or any other key... to continue).

Thank you for any help you can provide.

You can use 'w' as shortcut key and indicate that the maximum number of characters is 3.

    Is there any possibility I don't use any key at all?

    Not AFAIK. The value of the variable associated with the TEB is repopulated with each added character, but there has to be an event to tell CP that the entry is complete and can be validated, or the Success action (if no validation is required) can be fired. The TEB has a pausing point, playhead will wait till the confirmation of the end of the entry. That can be done with a Submit button or with a key shortcut key.  How will you do that without any key?
