Assign your desired key shortcut to this macro

Sub PressEnter()
Selection.InsertParagraphAfter
Selection.Collapse wdcollapseend
End Sub

Will this work when the person is in a dialog box or using Enter to mean OK?

No. It is only when that key stroke combination passes through Word's
"typing into document" text stream 'filters'.

For example, Word cant monitor us typing into Excel right? Well, Forms
are a sub-system to themselves and trap the input stream for the own
purpose. So Word cannot 'see' that typing either.
