At this point I am more confused than ever.  The applications I have written
in which the ArrowKeys WORK are virtually identical to those in which the
ArrowKeys DO NOT WORK.  The Form1 Properties and Events are identical as are
the includes and Unit1.h files.

So I don't understand why one WORKS and one DOES NOT.
Also, FAQ-78 says NOT to create a handler for my Form1.  But that's
precisely where I want the ArrowKeys to register.

I am sure I must be missing something quite obvious to others on this
newsgroup, but I just can't figure it out.
What is going on?  And how can I make it right?

Thanks,
Nick
