what about keyup and keydown?

from help on these events:

The KeyDown and KeyUp events are typically used to recognize or distinguish
between:

a.. Navigation keys, such as HOME, END, PAGEUP, PAGEDOWN, UP ARROW, DOWN
ARROW, RIGHT ARROW, LEFT ARROW, and TAB.
 
Yay for Tom!!
now i feel stupid I should have tried that first before coming begging for
help
thank you sir
