[vwnc] VW 7.6 keyboard hook?

Hi
I'm trying to create a keyboard hook, but somehow I haven't figured it out because it does not work.
I have a Grid containing InputFieldViews that need to do some special processing. I need a keyboard
hook on the InputFieldViews (because otherwise GridController will get the keyboard event; that will
not work in my case). I tried this in GridColumn

postBuildCell: aGridVisualCell with: aUIBuilder
        | widget c |

        widget := aGridVisualCell component widget.
        c := CustomInputBoxController new.
        c keyboardProcessor: widget controller keyboardProcessor.
        c menuHolder: CustomInputBoxController cellContextMenu asValue.
        c performer: c.
        c keyboardHook: c hookItUp.
        widget controller: c.

The block required for the keyboard hook is in the method hookItUp. So somewhere there's a
problem... Can someone please provide hints regarding keyboard hooks?

TIA
Mike

I finally figured out what's going wrong: my keyboard hook gets overridden by one installed through
GridColumn. It's buried deep in the code, at least deep enough to make debugging at 3 am tricky ;)

Keyboard hook sucks!!

I would hope that Cincom has put it on its list of one of
the GUI things that needs fixing.
