What is wrong with combo boxes

Hi

All I want to do is intercept the D-Pad navigation keys
when compact framework combo box has focus and for the
combo box NOT to do anything.

Surely this is not too much to ask?

I have tried handling the keypress/keydown events but
these just never get called regardless of how you use them.

I can not believe this this simple taks can be that hard
to achieve... unless combo boxes realy are gay!?!?!?!

ComboBoxes does not support key events at the moment. Thise events will be
supported in SP1 for CF as far as I know. Release date is not clear...

regards,

Peter
