I wish to override how a textbox responds to the downarrow. The help states 
that this key gets ignored by the onkeyup and onkeydown events unless I 
override the Inputchar of the textbox. How can I do this so that I can trap 
the down arrow in the onkeydown event?

From my investigations I assume that I have to descend from the text box to 
override the IsInputKey (my apologies - it would help if I got the method 
name correct). Is there any other way to do this as I was hoping to 
implement this behaviour in the standard grid (and would prefer not to have 
to customise the grid simply to get its textbox to implement the arror key)?
