Make down arrow behave like tab key

[Howard Bornstein]

Try this:

on arrowKey theKey
  put the number of the target into tFldNum
  if theKey is "down" then
    if there is a fld (tFldNum+1) then
      focus on fld (tFldNum+1)
    end if
  else if theKey is "up" then
    if there is a fld (tFldNum-1) then
      focus on fld (tFldNum-1)
    end if
  end if
end arrowKey

Put this in the card or stack script. You'll have to add a little more
code if you want to make it wrap around when you hit the first or last
field.
