I'm currently programming some APT applications in Sybase and am wondering
how to allow the end user the flexibility of using the up/down arrow keys
to move the cursor from field to field within a form.  I'm aware of the
positionform statement but I can't seem to find out how to map it to the
up and down arrow keys (instead of function keys).

This is a moot point if you're running it within X-windows (as you can then
pick the field with a point-mouse-click) but I'd like to allow the user(s)
more flexibility when running APT on vt220 character terminals.

Any assistance in this matter would be greatly appreciated.
