checkbox KeyDown

Dear List

I have done a bit of research and found out that the checkbox control
handles the arrow keys on the pocket pc internally. I would love to able to
get access to those items. I have tried an inherited control overriding the
onkeydown event, but it still gets to it internally before I have access to
it. Is there only way to do this to subclass it and catch the messages
myself? I would really like to avoid that if possible.

Could someone please point me in the right direction.

thanks very much

Kind regards

Use an IMessageFilter implementation.
