Hi Joe,

There is a simple way of getting around the built-in
limitation that the arrowkeys don't trigger the
selectionChanged handler :
--
on arrowKey pDirection
  send "selectionChanged" to me in 10 milliseconds
  pass arrowKey
end arrowKey
--

If you have a lot of lines, this constanht refrssh of
data can hurt performance, but I've explained aq
solution to that on the Revolution Documentation WIKI.

Hope this helped,
