wx.EVT_TREE_KEY_DOWN question

Howdy,

Sorry to be hitting the group so hard lately, but I'm going to do it anyway.
I have a TreeCtrl where I want "shift + up arrow" to go to the parent node.
I have bound wx.EVT_TREE_KEY_DOWN and can fire on" shift + up arrow".
The problem is the inherent up arrow code always seems to fire first. In other words, my code
fires after the vanilla "up arrow" code fires. so that when I type "shift + up arrow",
I frequently end up, two levels up. I have tried putting Skip() and Veto(), in various places,
just to cover my bases, but nothing seems to work. What am I missing?

TIA,
Danny

Try EVT_KEY_DOWN instead.
