Description

KeyDown is an overridden method used to handle and apply virtual key code messages (WM_KEYDOWN) received in the control. Key and Shift contain the virtual key code and the Shift-Ctrl-Alt modifiers for the message.

KeyDown ensures that the shortcut in NullValueKey is applied to the TDBLookup and the ItemIndex for the control. KeyDown calls the inherited method prior to exit.
