Well guys its back to the drawing boards. My ALT+D key is screened out by the date time field as an invalid entry so I can't check for it in the Keypress method. Bummer!
Also, in the memo edit editBox how do I "INSERT" the date time as the user is typing (ie. they hit ALT+D during typing and the date time is placed in the text stream where they hit ALT+D)
