Try increasing the DBLCLICK variable (DBLCLICK = 500) to see if that slows down the rate at which items are selected in the lists while scrolling with the arrow keys. I know these two item seem unrelated, but they are tied together.

>When moving about list boxes, trees, etc with the up & down arrow keys, just occassionally the highlighted item skips 2, 3, 4 or 5 times, seeming to have received multiple key presses. The problem occurs in VfP (e.g. Project Manager window) & in applications. The problem does not occur when moving about trees using the left/right arrow keys.
