TDBGrid Tab & Enter Behavior [SOLVED]

I'm working with a TDBGrid and want to control what happens when the
Tab or Enter key is pressed.  I find I can do so with the "KeyDown"
event, checking for Key = VK_TAB or VK_RETURN.  However, the cell
highlight moves to the next cell in the grid.  I want it to just stay
where it is and I will take care of things in the "KeyDown" event. 

Anyone have an idea on how to keep the cell highlight from moving? 

If not, perhaps I could capture the cell location before the "KeyDown"
and then move back to it in the "KeyDown" event.  I don't know at this
point how to do either.

Thanks in advance.

assign 0 to the Key var: eg:

Key:=0;

@99Percent,

You're 100% in my book.  As the Staples' ad goes:  "That was easy!"
Thanks for your help.
