I've tried to do this sometime back but couldn't work out how. Maybe I'll
have another look at the problem.

Anyhow, what exactly is the "window's thing" that the up/down arrow keys do?
As far as I know only MleText, RichEdit, and lists use the up/down arrow
keys and it makes sense for these controls. Is there something I've missed?
What are you trying to do with these keys? There may be another way to skin
this particular cat.
