In the Page --> On Key Action Tab,

if e_Key == 13 then
    -- The user pressed the enter key.
if e_Key == 17 then
    -- The user pressed the ctrl key.
end

The list of Virtual Key Codes are listed in your AMS Help File. You'd find them there if you searched for 'virtual key codes' in the index tab.

On any On Key event the AMS runtime will build an e_Modifiers table for you that contains a true/false value to indicate if the <ctrl>, <alt> or <shift> are pressed.

I think something like this in the On Key event of the Page you are working with will get you what you want:

-- Check to see if <ctrl> and <enter> are pressed
if e_Modifiers.ctrl and e_Key == 13 then
     -- Put the actions that should happen on <ctrl>+<enter> here...
-- Check to see if <enter> only is pressed
elseif e_Key == 13 then
     -- Put the actions that should happen on <enter> here...
end

Add the code that TJS posted previously to your Listbox Object's On Key Action Tab instead of On Page's On Key Action Tab.
