  afx_msg int OnVKeyToItem( UINT  nKey, CWnd*  pListBox, UINT nIndex  );
 
  Parameter   Description
 
  <nKey>      Specifies the virtual-key code of the key that the user
              pressed.
 
  <pListBox>  Specifies a pointer to the list box. The pointer may be
              temporary.
 
  <nIndex>    Specifies the current caret position.
 
  Remarks
 
  If the CWnd owns a list box with the ◄LBS_WANTKEYBOARDINPUT► style, the
  list box will send the WM_VKEYTOITEM message in response to a WM_KEYDOWN
  message.
 
  This message-handler member function calls the ◄Default► member
  function. Override this member function in your derived class to handle
  the ◄WM_VKEYTOITEM► message.
 
  Return Value
 
  Specifies the action that the application performed in response to the
  message. A return value of -2 indicates that the application handled all
  aspects of selecting the item and wants no further action by the list
  box. A return value of -1 indicates that the list box should perform the
  default action in response to the keystroke. A return value of 0 or
  greater specifies the index of an item in the list box and indicates
  that the list box should perform the default action for the keystroke on
  the given item.
