curious focus problem

Hello.

I have a mdi form with a toolbar including a combo box. Through this combo
box some kind of shapes can be selected. These shapes reside on the mdi
child forms and can be moved around with the arrow keys - or better it
should be possible to move them around with the arrow keys because by now I
can only move them around with other keys.

A child form contains a panel and this panel contains a pictureBox. Adding a
shape to this picturebox, the name of it to the combo box and setting the
focus again to the panel makes the program ignore the arrow keys although I
have set them to normal keys using the IsInputKey function - other keys are
not ignored.

Can someone bring some light in this focus dark?
I´ve tried so much I don´t have a clue on how to continue...

I hope I could make myself clear and a big thanks in advance,
Tim Bücker.
