Using return/enter to open a file?

[aloevlund]

I wasn't 100% sure where to start this thread.

There are few things I miss from Windows, but one thing is the way you open files. Is there a way, in Tiger, to be able to open files by just hitting return/enter, instead of [Command]+[Down]?
I tried going to the Keyboard shortcuts thing in System preferences, thinking i could just create a new one called "open file" or something like that, and just assign the return button. Now, either I'm doing it wrong, or this can't be done.
Any help?
Thanks
