According to Enter Key - Default Submit Button:

ASP.NET 2.0 introduces a wonderful work around for this. By simply specifying the "defaultbutton" property to the ID of the , whose event you want to fire, your job is done.

The defaultbutton property can be specified at the Form level in the form tag as well as at panel level in the definition tag. The form level setting is overridden when specified at the panel level, for those controls that are inside the panel.

Also, the Event Handler for the specified button, fires thereby simulating a true submit button functionality.

Like this

<form id="form1" runat="server" defaultbutton="Button1">
<div>
<asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" Text="Button1" OnClick="Button1_Click" />
</div>

Or you can achieve this by

Page.Form.DefaultButton = crtlLoginUserLogin.FindControl("LoginButton").UniqueID

or just

Page.Form.DefaultButton = LoginButton.UniqueID

This will work.
