Capturing Keyboard events while editing a list box cell.

General
#1

I am trying to mimic a spreadsheet’s use of the arrow keys for navigation in an editable listbox.

The problem I can’t seem to overcome is capturing the key down or up events whilst the cell is in edit mode.

Is there a way to put code in the events of the listbox.activecell text field that is created for the edit or allow these events to be passed back to the parent listbox?

Use Keyboard.AsyncKeydown in a 100ms timer.

Just had one of those Doh! moments… CellKeyDown event does this.
