The message is sent here for me, and I have a couple of apps that rely 
on that behavior. Do you have a keydown, rawkeydown, or arrowkey handler 
somewhere that might be interfering? I think those messages get sent 
before "selectionChanged", so if you have any of those then you'll want 
to pass the message.

Try this test in a new stack with one field, with the field set to 
"listBehavior". Set the script of the field to this:

on selectionChanged
   put the seconds
end selectionChanged

Select one of the lines manually (you'll see the seconds in the message 
box) and then use the arrow keys to move up and down. On my machine, the 
seconds change with each arrow keystroke.

This is on a Mac, I didn't try it on Windows.
