True, but that is not the problem here. ( I will admit to not being the best engineer in the world, and a design that appeared sound and logical 5 years ago has been stretched almost to breaking point but it all does work, at least after a fashion.) It seems that I really don't have to do anything to override the parent code. This needs to be rethought and fixed. Spaces,tabs, and Enter Key should NOT override.
A problem is a problem only as long as it has a possible solution. Lacking that, it becomes a FACT!
