Chuck,

Sorry, been a long night (beta testing... ahhh)... personally, in the form in question (myForm), open in design mode, goto Form, New Method, then create 'chucks_keypress' method...

In the 'chucks_keypress' method, I would fire the click() event in question with something like

THISFORM.activecontrol.click()

In the myform.keypressevent, I would define the circumstances to fire the new method..

IF TYPE("THISFORM.ActiveControl") == "O" AND UPPER(THISFORM.ActiveControl.BaseClass) <> "GRID"
*-- If on an active object, and the object is the grid in myForm...
   IF INLIST(LAST(), leftarrow, rightarrow... leftclick...)
      *-- IF the last keys pressed were some of the cursor keys leftarrow, rightarrow... 
      *-- don't forget TAB, SHIFT+TAB as well...
      chucks_keypressevent() && fire the new method we created
   ENDIF
ENDIF

HTH
