Smartphone Keypress events

I have a textbox on a smartphone. I want only numbers to be entered.
Pressing the keys on the smartphone does the standard bit of cycling through
the three letters before getting to the number on the fourth press. I have
tried to trap this in code by the frmMain_KeyPress/Down/Up events never fire.
I do have a menu on the form. I don't want to remove the menu because I
want to use the two soft keys with standard menu navigation.

I'm using VS2005. Is there a way to get the keypress events or a way to
force the keypad to only enter numbers?

Thanks

Hmmmm.... I would have preferred to use CF2, but when I went to make a new
SmartPhone project, I only had "Device Application (1.0)" available, so I
assume that I am using CF v1, and that CF v2 was not available. What would
I need to do to make v2 available?
 
CF v2 supports WM 5.0 Smartphone and not 2003. So you need to install the WM
5.0 SDK for Smartphone (assuming that your target devices will also be WM5).
