VC++ and toolbars/keydown event handling

Hi All,

I'm having a little problem with the KeyDown event handler. I have added a
keydown event handler to my Form, but the ToolBar control is overriding it.
So say I press the arrow keys, rather then doing what I want it to do, it
simply circulates through the buttons on the ToolBar. How can I by pass this?

Thanks,
Eddie
